We partner with the young adults ages 18-25 as they make the transition from high school to college or the work force. Our goal is to equip them to remain grounded in their faith and their church as they make the transition. We lead Wednesday worship services and Sunday small groups and life groups. We also connect students to other leaders within the church where they can fulfill the great commission by serving in other ministries such as Kidz Connection, Youth Small Groups, Media Ministry, Praise Team and more.
