Engaging students faith in a bigger story
sundays (grades 6-8) - 10:45AM
Wednesdays (grades 7-12) - 6:30pm
On Sundays at 10:45am, our Jr. High students (grades 6-8) begin in the Main Auditorium for praise & worship and then retreat to “The Loft” upstairs for our Jr. High service.
On Wednesdays from 6:30pm-8:30pm in the Cafe Auditorium, students (grades 7-12) come together for praise & worship, followed by an encouraging message and small group breakout sessions.
OUR GOAL
Our goal is to move students beyond information towards a relational encounter with God through worship, large group and small group experiences.
Each month we discuss topical series focused on: the wonder of who God is; the discovery of who you are; how you relate to God; and the passion that we should have for serving one another. Each series is timed to the rhythms of a student’s school year, and highlights one, two, or all three of these experiences helping students engage God in a large group/small group format.
CONNECTIONS
Connections are important to us in Via Youth. We want students to engage in meaningful friendships that build one another up and help grow their relationship with God. Every month our so, we hold what we call our Friday Fun Night. These out of the ordinary gatherings include extra food, extra fun and extra friends. Keep an eye on our events page for the next Friday Fun Night! On Wednesday nights in Via Youth, students in grades 7-12 can come as early as 6pm for games and hangout time with friends before our youth service begins at 6:30pm. Students are encouraged to invite a friend to come along too!
SUMMER CAMP AND WINTER RETREAT
During the summer and again in the winter, we retreat to a place that is out of the ordinary for students, allowing them to disconnect from their usual routine and grow closer to God and others. From quiet times and morning devotionals to small group discussions, bible teachings and recreational fun, our camps and retreats are a favorite amongst our Via Youth. Students are always encouraged to invite a friend to join them in this amazing experience.
