Student  Meetings

Students have various meetings where they are able to fellowship and grow closer to Christ.  Sunday school (Sundays 11am-11:50am) and Youth group meetings (Sundays 5:30pm-7pm) are developed to allow each student to mature in Christ.  There's a lot of laughter, games, and fun along the way and each activity encourages fellowship and friendship while equipping each student with a comprehensive knowledge of God's Word.
