Youth Ministry

5th - 12th grade

Youth at Sunset Ridge

We love having middle and high schoolers here on Sunday mornings, and we want your student to feel like they actually belong—not just tolerated, but genuinely known. Whether your kid is figuring out their faith for the first time or has grown up in the church, there's a place for them to ask hard questions, build real friendships, and grow into who they're becoming.

Students are welcome everywhere. Students of all ages are always welcome to stay with their family during either worship service—including participating in communion. We want every student to feel like Sunday morning is somewhere they belong.

Sunday Mornings for Youth

  • Middle School—Formation at 10:15 AM 5th through 8th graders have their own space during our church-wide Formation hour. Boys and girls meet separately for discussion-based time in Scripture that meets them where they are—curious, energetic, and figuring things out.

Wednesday Nights

for Middle & High Schoolers

  • Students in 5th - 8th grades will discover how music deepens worship, strengthens faith, and helps build meaningful friendships.

    Led by Bethany Hill, an experienced music educator and choir director, students will sing, play drums, share their stories, explore scripture, and experience the joy of making music together. 

    Whether you already love music or just want to try something new, there’s a place for you. No musical experience is needed. Just come ready to participate and share yourself with new friends! We’ll get to know one another and God together. Let’s make some noise!

    Registration required.

  • Wednesdays, 5:15 - 5:45 PM High school girls are invited to gather before the main group for a focused study of the previous Sunday's sermon passage—a great way to stay connected to what's being taught on Sundays and dig into it together. Email Den for more information.

  • Wednesdays, 6:00 - 7:30 PM All local high school students are welcome to join this weekly discipleship group led by Pastor Den Slater. Expect real conversation, open questions, and a closer look at what it means to follow Jesus. Email Den for more information
