Love. Worship. Serve. Go.

Central Students

6-12 Grade

“Let no one look down on your youthfulness, but rather in speech, conduct, love, faith and purity, show yourself an example of those who believe.”

–1Timothy 4:12

Middle and High School Ministries

Central Students is a place for middle and high school students to connect with other students, grow in their faith, and go tell others about what Jesus has done in their lives. Join us during our Wednesday night services or our Sunday morning Community Groups.

Sunday A.M.

On Sunday mornings, we have Community Groups from 9:00a-10:00a. Community Groups are a great opportunity for students to connect with each other and build community while studying God’s Word. Middle School groups are broken up by grade and gender, and High School groups are broken up by grade. We use Explore the Bible Curriculum that takes students through 13 week studies on a book of the Bible. Both Middle and High School meet on the first floor of the Family Life Center. After Community Groups, we have a Service at 10:30am.

Wednesday P.M.

Our Wednesday Night worship service begins at 6pm each night with the doors opening at 6:00 pm on the first floor of the Family Life Center. Students will worship and hear a message, which will then lead to a talkback small group time that lasts roughly 30 minutes. This gives students an opportunity to connect with their peers while also processing the message that was just preached. Students are then dismissed to a fellowship time which normally includes games and snacks.

Dare 2 Share: Nov 9, 2024

On this single day, youth groups all around the globe will embark on a shared mission—creating a 24-hour wave of change and transformation. They are trained to share the Gospel through Dare 2 Live videos and then sent into their communities with the message of hope in Jesus Christ.

Strength to Stand: Jan 18-20, 2025

Our annual Strength to Stand Conferences are winter retreat opportunities for students to encounter Jesus through energetic worship and passionate teaching while enjoying a fun-filled time in the Smoky Mountains. Conference includes four worship sessions featuring worship and preaching — two night sessions and two morning sessions. Both evening sessions are followed by concerts from some of the most popular Christian music and worship artists today. STS Conference seeks to reach the next generation through a relevant, relatable experience while maintaining the heartbeat of our ministry—the depth and substance of the life-changing message of Jesus.

DNOW

DNOW is a weekend overnight retreat here in Douglasville during the Spring. Students are in small groups that stay in host homes during the weekend. There will be Bible studies, worship services, service projects, and group competitions.

IMPACT

IMPACT is different, because it is designed as a catalyst for life-changing conversations. As students worship, discuss, play, and eat with their small group, trained leaders are intentionally engaging them with spiritual conversations to promote deeper intimacy with Christ.

Ask anyone who has attended IMPACT — there is no better place to see students grow in their walk with Jesus!

Savannah

This Summer, our Student Ministry is headed to Savannah, GA to share the gospel and shine the light of Jesus to those who are living in darkness. We are supporting a local church plant by hosting a Vacation Bible School, doing various service projects, and praying for those in their community. We will get to finish our week by hosting a community carnival, watching spectacular fireworks, and spending a day at Tybee Island. This is going to be the best week of your student’s Summer by far!

Student Leadership University

Student Leadership University is all about providing opportunities for young believers to develop into capable, confident leaders that will change the world. Through tentpole events, dynamic speakers, and career opportunities, we teach the next generation to Think, Dream, and Lead.

Safety

All of our volunteers must pass a background check. Central also employs an off-duty police officer, as well as our own security team, to ensure your child’s safety.

First Time Guests

Stop by our Welcome Center in the lobby on Sunday mornings, where our volunteers will escort you to the student area. On Wednesday nights, you can head straight to the first floor of the Family Life Center where the student ministry meets.
