412 Parents
We believe parents play the most important role in the spiritual development of their students, and our goal is to partner with families every step of the way.
Through weekly gatherings, events, camps, retreats, and service opportunities, we strive to create a safe, Christ-centered environment where students can build meaningful friendships, grow
in their faith, and develop a lasting relationship with Jesus.
We are committed to supporting parents by providing opportunities for students to connect with caring leaders, engage in biblical teaching, and experience a community that encourages
them to live out their faith both now and in the future!
