MINISTRIES

Students

Summit Students exists to help students take their next right step toward God.

Our weekly large group events are all about fun, connecting with other students, and learning from our adult leaders, while our Connect group discussions offer students a safe place to ask hard questions.

We also have service projects, retreats, and other events that give opportunities to see what Summit Students is all about throughout the year!

FAQs

  • Summit Students is all about relationships—with friends, with adult leaders, and with God. So, each weekly Surge and Edge meetings have time for students to hang out, play games, worship together, and explore what it looks like to follow Jesus with our whole hearts in small groups called Connect groups. Connect groups are divided out by age and gender and led by an adult leader.

    In middle school, we discuss topics that matter to middle schoolers by examining what God has to say about these topics and support each student as they make their faith their own.

    In high school, we wrestle with the tough questions that characterize high school life as we try to whole-heartedly follow Jesus. We also explore how our faith determines the answer to the core question: “What do I want to do with my life?”

  • In early August, we encourage all 5th graders (and parents) to attend our 6th grade orientation. We will have our fall kick-off event for all incoming 6th graders-seniors in August.

  • Graduating 8th graders are invited to start attending our high school ministry in early August when we have our kick-off event.

Have any other questions? We’re happy to help!
