Student Central

Teens Sharing the Love of Jesus

Student Central exists to help middle school and high school students share the love of Jesus with their relational worlds. Students want to be here because they have a ton of fun, they grow, and they spend time with adults and other students who want God’s best for them.

Middle & High School Youth Group

Wednesday Nights

No two Wednesdays are the same, but there are a few things you can count on each week: 

Arrival & Hangout

  • Middle School enters through the Lower FLC doors where pizza and pop are for sale. You can play in the gym, take in an air hockey or carpet ball game, and connect with your friends.
  • High School enters through the Grand Central doors where there’s free pizza and pop. Hang out, make new friends, and have fun together when you arrive.

LifeGroups

  • LifeGroups have fun, learn, and grow together in a small group setting every Wednesday night. Students are grouped by gender and grade and are led by committed and consistent LifeGroup leaders. 

Worship

  • We worship and learn more about God together as a large group in the Worship Center.

Volunteer

Every Student Central LifeGroup has adult leaders who guide students through their middle school and high school years. Most LifeGroup adult leaders start with a group of students in 6th grade and lead them all the way through high school graduation.

On Wednesday nights, we have volunteers running the cafes, manning check-in stations, and providing childcare for other adult leaders. Students lead, too! We have students who serve with production, worship, and more. 

There are a ton of ways to serve middle and high school students at Central. How do you want to get involved?
