College & Young Adults

Our goal is to develop students and young adults who are lifelong followers of Jesus Christ exhibited by being spiritual self-feeders and multipliers.

College Central

College Central is a gathering for college-agers featuring coffee consumption, the best homemade baked goods in history, and studying the Bible together. The goal is to be a place where you can be comfortable inviting friends who don’t know Jesus, but also grow in your own faith.

When do we meet?

We meet right after the 11am service at Central on Sunday mornings.

Where do we meet?

Our college group meets in Central Perk (which is located in the church’s main lobby, Grand Central). If you’re not sure where to go, just look for Mindy in Grand Central after the service.

Do I have to be a college student?

Short answer: no. College Central is open to both college students as well as non-students who are college-aged. And if you’re a little older than college-aged, our Young Adult ministry might be perfect for you.

Can I bring my friends?

We would love for you to bring your friends. In fact, every time you don’t bring a friend, a puppy cries. Don’t make a puppy cry.

I’m Interested!

Young Adults

Our Young Adult Ministry is for post-college age men and women with a goal of hanging out, studying Scripture together, and building a community of young adults in Sioux Falls who are committed to following Jesus and telling others about Him. We also eat delicious food and do other fun things along the way.

When do we meet?

Three weeks a month, we meet on Monday nights for hangout and Bible study. The fourth week of every month we do a fun, community-building activity.

7:00pm – Worship and short teaching, then small group time
Some worship, some teaching, and a chance to talk about the Bible. You can email Mindy to find out what we’re reading.

8:00-ish – Hangout and snacks.
Pretty self-explanatory. We hang out together and eat delicious snacks.

Where do we meet?

We meet in the Hearth Room at Central Church (located at 3102 W. Ralph Rogers Rd.). It’s very hearthy and nice.

Who’s invited?

Any young adults (single or married) who are post-college age and are interested in growing in their faith.

Can I bring my friends?

Yes! If they are young adults, then we’d love for you to invite them. Assuming you want your friends to have a fantastic time and learn more about their faith and thank you forever for inviting them.

I’m Interested!

Upcoming Events

Monthly College Central Lunch

You can also email Mindy Schweitzer if you have any questions.

Intern Development Program

Central Church College Internship

Are you interested in exploring a call to vocational ministry? Wondering how your gifts can be used in the Kingdom of God? Central’s Intern Development Program is not just an internship—it’s a program designed with one thing in mind: YOUR DEVELOPMENT.

In our 1-2 year development program, you’ll be fully integrated into our staff culture and given real responsibility and coaching to set you on a trajectory of passionate church involvement and a life set on following Jesus.

To put it bluntly, we’re not looking for interns to fill hours and perform grunt labor, we want leaders who desire to be challenged, grown, and invested in.
