What's Going on for High School Students

Gather. Delve. Trek.
 
 
 

the gathering  –  Taking a break for winter, January-March 

We're an inviting community for students in 9-12 grades. We have a blast with choice music, crazy big games, fun board games, amped or unplugged worship, authentic guest speakers, and crucial conversations. Plus snacks and desserts and sometimes we'll serve dinner! We have an amazing group of adult and college student leaders with unique energy leading the program. At Mill Run until December. In January through March we'll meet in the afternoon for High School Reach Out, see below here. Contact Marsha Zimmerman. 
 

the treks  –  projects and events

Each month we have at least two trips where we travel outside of the church for service projects, mission trips, and social events. Sometimes we get out and serve. Sometimes we travel to youth conferences or go on retreats. Sometimes we just go to the paintball park or bowling, or sliding on the ice playing broomball at the Chiller. No matter where we go, it’s always an adventure getting out into the world being salt and light. For more information, or if you have a suggestion for a trek, contact Doug Coons.


the delve  –  in-depth studies

We all need to spend some time digging deeper into the Bible and talking about how to apply it to real life. That’s when we delve into God’s word. We have lots of different chances for you to be a part of a short term or long term Bible Study or small groups. Let us know your interest and we will find a way to make it happen for you. If you want to join or start a group, or have an idea for a class, contact Marsha Zimmerman.
 

What's Up Right Now? 

UALC Youth Reach Out

A new youth program is running on Sundays right after church from 12:00-2:30 pm. It's a chance for High School students to explore God's call to reach out to those living in poverty. Several teams are emerging to focus on specific local and nearby missions. This is a chance to DO something; don't miss it. Sundays starting at noon from January-March. For details, e-mail Marsha Zimmerman.
 

Tetelestai

Tetelestai is a rock musical presented by the youth of UALC. This theatrical performance of the Passion of Christ uses contemporary music and traditional costumes. Performances are March 30-April 2. Click here for info. Contact Angie Edmonds with any questions.

Ongoing Activities and Programs

Sunday School

Sunday School at UALC is not your typical classroom. We have the best teachers getting students engaged and involved in the lesson. It is a place to explore and be challenged – a place where you can build a deeper relationship with God, awesome teachers, and other students your age. We meet from 9:30-10:30 am in the Mill Run youth space during the school year. Marsha Zimmerman
 

Girl's Night In

6-12 grade girls meet for dinner, fun, friends and talks by guest speakers. We meet at Lytham Road every couple months. Marsha Zimmerman
 

Confirmation

Confirmation is for 9th -12th grade students and consists of classes and a retreat. We offer the series throughout the year. Read all the details here. Marsha Zimmerman
 

Delve Bible Studies

Dig into the Bible and study what God has in store for you. We meet in small groups to share, pray for one another and talk about how to apply the truth to real life. On Thursday evenings, 7:00-9:00 pm at Lytham Road. Angie Edmonds
 

Choristers (High School Choir)

We have a lot going on. But even during the busy school year, a group of us gathers on Sunday evenings to sing and have fun making music. Join us at 5:30-6:30 pm before the gathering at Mill Run, during the school year. Friends are always welcome. The choir will not be meeting in January through March. Dulcy Delcamp
 

Summer Camp

We join with students from across the country at Student Life at the Beach in Daytona Beach, Florida. It's a week long camp filled with music, inspirational talks and adventure. Marsha Zimmerman
