Youth Middle School

Central Youth Middle and High school students will begin meeting in the Central Youth Building on Sun., Dec. 4. Central Youth Middle School families can check out their new space on Weds., Nov. 30 during an open house.

At the Youth Building, Middle School students will enter the lobby to the right to go to check-in. They will head downstairs on the right for their own cafe, game room, and auditorium, all in the lower level of the building. The only time Central Youth Middle and High School students may combine would be for worship on Sunday mornings during the 10:30am service.

High School students will check-in the left side of the lobby and will use the existing café and game room downstairs. High School students will attend service upstairs in the auditorium.

Both groups meet on Sundays at 8:30 and 10:30am and Wednesdays at 7pm.
