Bridge Students

Our goal is to encourage 6th-12th grade students to BELONG in community, BELIEVE in the God of the Bible & BECOME more like Jesus through their words and actions! We are excited to pursue Jesus' abundant life together through real-life conversations, the study of God's word and supportive accountability.

Student Worship Sunday Nights

Sundays from 5:00–7:15 PM, Bridge Students gather for a night of connection, growth & fun! We start with dinner together, hear a Christ-centered message, hangout & discuss the message in Stride Groups with friends, and finish the night with games. It’s a place to build lasting friendships, grow in your faith & have a great time doing it!

Food Schedule 2025

As our Bridge Students ministry continues to grow, we are implementing a new strategy for our Sunday night meals to better serve our students and their families. This year, we are inviting families to help by contributing to the cost of the meals.

Instead of preparing a meal, we ask for a financial donation of $100 to $200 to help cover the cost, depending on the size of the meal.

Your primary role as a volunteer will be to pick up and serve the meal to the students. Our Student Pastor, Lawson, will coordinate with you and provide all the necessary details, including the restaurant location and pickup time. Please feel free to partner with another family to split the responsibilities and the donation.

Key Information:

Enter donation amount & in the memo line, please type "Sunday meal" to ensure your donation is allocated correctly.
Thank you for your generosity and for helping to fuel our students growth each week!
