Our mission is to empower students to make a difference by helping them know God, find freedom, and discover purpose.


Calvary YTH exists so that students can take a series of next steps that lead them closer to Jesus.

We do this through:
We help students study the words and ways of Jesus so they can have a biblical worldview and apply what they’ve learned to everything they do in order to teach those around them how to be more like Christ through their words and actions.

Here is a story of impact from one of our YTH students!

Youth Services

Wednesdays, 7 p.m.

Grades 6–12 meet in the Youth Auditorium
6 p.m. — Pre-service prayer  |  6:30 p.m. — Activities and hangouts

Sundays, 9 & 11 a.m.

JUNIOR HIGH
Junior high students meet for small groups in the Youth Auditorium.

HIGH SCHOOL
High school students attend the adult service in the Auditorium and are invited to sit in the student section (front and center in section 3).

For high schoolers who are here for both services, we ask them to sit one/serve one. Students are invited to join the Student Volunteer Team and serve alongside other ministries. 

Let's go deeper together!

We believe in finding freedom through authentic, God-centered relationships. That’s why small groups are so important. They are a safe space where students are free to connect, share, laugh, pray and just be themselves.

Students will meet Sundays after service at Calvary, and will break off into smaller, gender-based groups. They can look forward to a time of food, fellowship, games, activities, large group discussion (co-ed) and smaller group discussion (by gender). Each small group will dive deeper into that week’s sermon as well as use basic catechisms to open up discussion of larger topics about who God is and what His word tells us.

Junior High meet every Sunday during the 9 and 11 am services in the YTH room and High School Small Groups are going strong!
