I think God might do some of his best work on Sunday nights under summer skies.

For the month of June, Sunday nights are more than just a book study, they’re about creating the kind of moments students remember for years.

Swimming, kickball, backyard games, food, and then real conversations around a book (whether or not they read it!) that’s about changing the negative soundtracks in teen’s heads and hearts.

Even if your student can only come one Sunday or are unsure, register them using the button below so I can start getting a feel on how to plan and so I know who to send location info to!

Still thinking about Confirmation Sunday 🔥 🫰

Students led worship.
Students shared their faith.
And Confirmation students stood up and said “yes” to following Jesus and serving with their prayers, presence, gifts, service, and witness.

And the church showed up right beside them, cheering them on every step of the way. 🫶

Good lord my heart is happy.

Can’t wait to see what plans God has in store for this generation as they lead and serve the church!!!
Let’s goooooooooooooooooo

There is so much to celebrate about Sunday. I’m not sure where to start. So, instead of saying everything, for now I think I’ll just say this:

A few weeks back Jake Maloney, one of our adult leaders who has really stepped it up as a leader in the youth group over the last few years, wanted to send the students off for the summer by letting them know that they’ve got a friend in him and in each other.

So while the students slurped up ice cream, Jake serenaded the crowd with the ultimate Toy Story tune. The kids clapped and swayed along because I think they knew that what Jake sang was true — we’ve got a friend in this youth group.

It has been a blessing to serve this youth group since November 2023. This youth group is growing and changing. It’s not what it was when I took over and I’m excited to watch it grow into what I hope it one day can be. Thank you for leaning in, for trusting me and our other amazing leaders with your kid, and for pointing your student to Jesus every single day.

Sunday, May 3rd is the last 527 of the 2025/2026 school year.
We will worship outside, eat our weight in ice cream sundaes, and have a delicious dinner. Help us close out the year with all our friends being there!

PLEASE NOTE // TRAFFIC CONCERNS // DROP-OFF + PICK-UP CHANGE
For this Sunday only we are asking you to enter the upper-parking lot and drive down the hill on Student Ministry side where the 9 square is (where I typically park my car) to drop your student off for 527. You can exit through the MAC/Chapel parking lot. This is because…

(1) A large concert in the Sanctuary will be getting out at 5pm and we are concerned about traffic flow and congestion in the front parking lot with students being dropped off and guests leaving our campus.

(2) The tent from Sunday morning will be blocking the road to student ministry so there will be limited traffic flow and we don’t anyone to accidentally drive under the tent or accidentally hit anyone or anything.

By driving down the hill from the upper parking lot and letting them out at the curve by the 9 square this will help alleviate traffic congestion from the front parking lot and help us have eyes on students at drop off and pick up that the tent placement prevents. Text me with any questions. Thanks!

Rock. Paper. Regret.
Sometimes 527 is unhinged in the best way 🤝
You had to be there… the smells were wild!
