Other Weekly/Regular Student Activities

High School Weekend Services: We meet on Saturday nights at 7pm and Sunday mornings at 9:00am and 10:30am. On Saturday nights following their class, the High School students meet in the Middle School room for a brief time of worship (this element of the night is called 2:42). Sunday morning classes meet in the High School room. The format for Saturday is unique, but the content of the lessons for all three weekend services is the same. The weekend services are designed for maturing students who want to grow in their faith.
