Upcoming Events

If you are not receiving our Remind messages, with last-minute updates or changes regarding events, please email Melissa so that she can add you.

We are requiring masks at all youth events going forward. Please encourage your child to wear their mask to continue to protect our community. We also ask that you be gracious and flexible during this time as we have to cancel or reschedule events due to coronavirus. 


Our November SNL will be a Bonfire and B.Y.O.B (Bring Your Own Blankets) night! Join us for fellowship and smores! Middle School SNL will be on the 15th from 7 pm - 8:30 pm.


We are excited to gather for our outdoor Friendsgiving celebrations on November 22nd from 6 pm - 8 pm. Bring your favorite Thanksgiving food to share! All of middle school will gather at the Alger's house, and all of high school will be at the Lewkowicz's house.

Middle Schoolers sign up to bring a dish here.

High Schoolers sign up to bring a dish here.


Instead of meeting for Drama of Scripture and AP Theology on November 22nd, we will be joining the rest of our church in preparing for Advent by making Advent Wreaths for our families.


Sunday mornings in December, beginning December 6th, we will be gathering in the greenhouse with both Middle and High Schoolers for an Advent series instead of meeting for Drama of Scripture and AP Theology.


Why We're Having a Retreat in the Middle of a Pandemic

We wanted to send out a little more info about why NOW more than ever is the time your kids need a retreat. We aren’t crazy, and we haven’t forgotten that we’re in a pandemic.The need for connectivity is greater than ever, and I fear the fall out of the isolation we have had our teens in for much of the last year, may do much more damage than the actual pandemic.

Yes, we know there are risks involved, however, with the safety measures we are taking, we truly believe that we will be able to provide a safe environment for your youth.

We would love for you to WATCH THIS five minute video to hear more of our heart behind why now is so important for your kids to have this time with Jesus and one another! Registration for The Booyah Brrrr is now open, you can register here!! The Booyah Brrrr is for students in 6th-12th grades on January 15th-18th, at Watermarks Camp in Charlottesville, Virginia.
