What to Expect on Wednesday nights

Wednesday nights are full of momentum and meaning. Students walk into an environment created just for them, energetic, welcoming, and grounded in biblical truth.
Leaders walk alongside students through the ups and downs of life. Whether it’s a tough week at school or an exciting step of faith, students have people who believe in them and point them toward Jesus.

Rally Moments

Large Group
All students gather for worship, teaching, and high-energy experiences that set the tone for the night. This is where community builds, faith rises, and students feel part of something bigger.

Small Groups

Age-Based Circles
Students break into groups by age and gender for deeper conversation and intentional connection. These circles help students process what they’re learning, talk about real life, and build meaningful relationships.
