Youth Band

Youth Band meets every other Sunday evening during the school year and every Sunday immediately after service during the summer. This summer all middle and high School students are invited to join us and learn how to be a part of a worship team.


The youth band has led worship for quarterly prayer meetings, Praise Party, and some members have joined the rotation on the worship team on Sunday mornings!


Youth Bible Explorer Classes (YBX)

Youth Bible Explorer (YBX) meets during the second hour on Sunday mornings following our main service. This youth group environment provides a time for teens to play games, build friendships and study the Bible.


Teen Accountability Groups (TAGs)

Teen Accountability Groups, or "TAGs," are small group Bible studies led by an adult mentor.  Students study and respond to God's word while encouraging one another to grow in their relationship with Jesus. To get more information or get connected, mark your interest on the connect card. 


SUMMER CAMPS 2023

Register today!

Summer camps are an amazing opportunity for students to connect with each other and adult leaders, have a ton of fun, participate in exciting activities, hear the gospel and live it out in community with other students. We are partnering with a collection of other churches around the Vancouver/Portland metro area to put on two camps: one for high schoolers (ETV) and one for middle schoolers (ETM). These will be life-changing experiences and you won't want to miss it!

If the cost of camp is a concern for you and your family, please contact Peter Lundahl and we will be happy to help get your student to camp! Our hope is that every student would have the opportunity to participate and that no student ever misses out on camp because of finances.
