Student Ministries
Welcome to Elevate Life Church’s Student Ministry page! We’re here to help guide middle and high school students, as well as young adults, in getting to know Jesus, growing in community and fellowship, and living out their faith. Whether you’re new to church or grew up around it, our Student Ministries are a great place to plant and grow a seed!
Through meetings, events, and prayer, we strive to build one another up and foster students of the Word. Because we believe students aren’t just the future of the church; they’re the church right now, our mission is simple: Love God. Love people. Make a difference.
Youth Group Ministry
Grades 6-12, we are the Youth Group Ministry at Elevate Life Church. We strive to make disciples of all youth and help them become the ‘now’ of the church. We look to help young people grow in their faith, build real friendships, and discover their purpose in Jesus. Through weekly gatherings and events, our goal is to create a space where every student feels valued and encouraged to live out their faith boldly, both within and outside the church.
Our Youth Group meets on Sunday evenings from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at Elevate Life Church! Please join us in enriching students’ lives through ministry!
Young Adult Ministry Studies (YAMS)
YAMS is a great opportunity to meet and fellowship with others your age (18-25) and share what’s going on in your lives; connecting, growing, and pursuing God together. Whether you’re in college, starting a career, or trying to figure out what’s next, YAMS is a place to build authentic relationships and deepen your faith. Through conversations, study, and real-life discipleship, we’re here to help you navigate this season with purpose and passion.
Our YAMS meets on Sunday afternoons at 12:30 p.m. at Elevate Life Church! Please join us in building an organic community founded on Christ!
