YOUTH AT HOPE

HOPEyouth exists to help students ages middle through high school (grades 6-12) become fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ, who let God love them, who love Him in return, and who love others in Jesus’ name.

All students 6th - 12th grades meet together on Wednesday evenings for a night full of student-led worship, games, and an encouraging message. Each Wednesday night also ends in small groups, divided up according to gender and grade to allow for deeper connection and community building with students of the same age! High school and middle school are together for worship, but are separate for the message and small group.

Middle school also meets weekly on Sunday mornings for Sunday School during the school year.
