STUDENTs
(6th - 12th)
Welcome!
GracePoint Students exists to walk alongside and launch the next generation of world changers (6th-12th) by pointing them to Christ as their source of strength for this current stage of life. It’s our goal to create environments where the students know they are loved for who they are today, accepted from all walks of life, and challenged to grow in their walk with Christ. We aim to help prepare, equip, and encourage these students to overcome the world’s challenges they will face into adulthood. Using Christ as a model, with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, God’s Word, we aim to launch the next generation of world changers by helping them Love God, Love People and Change the World.
Our Values
We are all created in the image of God, even teens! We function and operate under a simple principle, known as the L.A.F. Principle.
First Time Here?
When it is your student's first time with us, we register them in our check-in system via paper form and electronic. The paper form helps us to have immediate contact information on hand, as well as allows us to go grab a snack of their choosing during the student worship service.

Sundays: Our student ministry meets in our student room during the 11am main service for an engaging time of worship, teaching and other exciting activities. During this time of worship, all students stay together for music and teaching. We offer small groups on Wednesday nights, as outlined in our Midweek description below.
Wednesdays: Our midweek group is a mix of games, teaching overview (from the previous Sunday morning), and small groups separated by gender and ages. Our committed ministry team leads our students through impactful small group opportunities. Life change happens in small groups, and we have been able to witness God using these opportunities for students to grow in their relationship with Jesus each week.
