Opportunities Where You Can Serve

Wherever you are in your walk with Jesus, is there a next step He is asking you to take?

Students
You will grow deeper in your understanding of our amazing God as you teach and develop relationships with the students in your Sunday Discipling Group. Student Ministry Sunday School teachers teach in a team environment. You teach in a rotation with a co-teacher and take turns presenting the lesson. You do not teach every week. We are currently using The Gospel Project curriculum in our classes. Our classes focus on 20 minutes of instruction and 20 minutes of discussion.
You will grow spiritually and in your ability to minister to others as you help co-lead a Wednesday night Small Group. As a co-leader, you will build relationships with the students inside and outside of small group. You are given questions to ask and to lead your small group in. We will match you up with an experienced co-leader, so you can learn the ropes of connecting and guiding your small group. Small groups run for 30 minutes and are part of our Wednesday Night experience for students.
Music and video is of high value to this generation. Serving as a Tech Leader is an important part of our Student Ministry. We need someone who is willing to be trained on our simple software to help run the video portion of our Wednesday Night experience. We are also in need of those who are willing to be trained on our sound board as well.
