Camps and Retreats
These are special opportunities throughout the year to get away and experience unique opportunities. Whether it's going to Orlando for Rock the Universe or going on a summer mission project these will be experiences you will not forget. Make sure to check the Calendar to see what is coming up. Don't miss out!
Service Projects
Our projects get students outside the walls of the church and into the community doing good work. Not only do the service projects expose students to great Christian ministries serving in the area, but also allows them to see faith in action. The service projects are desinged for students and their families to serve together. We have at least one project every month so make sure to check the Mission page and get involved.

Be-With Times
