Join Us Weekly
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 School and High School meet on the first floor of the Family Life Center. After Community Groups, we have a Service at 10:30a.
Wednesday P.M.
Our Wednesday Night worship service begins at 6p 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 hang time which normally includes games and snacks.
Spark: Aug 16-17, 2024
Spark is our all-night back to school lock-in at Adventure Air Sports in Kennesaw, GA. At Spark, students will worship together and then spend the entire night on trampolines, zip-lines, slides, and more! Transportation and late-night pizza are included.
Fall Retreat: Oct 18-20, 2024
Every year, our Central Students have the opportunity to take a retreat to grow closer to God and their brothers and sisters in Christ. This year, they visited the Blue Ridge Mountains.
