Gateway Students
At Gateway, we're passionate about bringing students to Jesus and Jesus to students through building authentic friendships and helping them grow a faith that's truly their own in a safe, welcoming and engaging community.
Wednesday Nights
When: 6:00-8:00 pm
Where: Student Center
Who: 6th-12th Grade
Wednesdays are the best! Youth Group meets weekly during the academic school year, with activities during the summer. Students get to enjoy a safe environment where they can grow in their relationship with Christ and others. They'll get to hang out, hear from God's word, praise God through worship, and have a time for discussion and connection in an age and gender appropriate small group.

FAQs
What grades are considered students?
Gateway Students is for youth in grades 6-12.
Who leads Gateway Students?
Every Gateway Students leader is thoroughly screened, trained and taken through our safety process before they ever engage as a volunteer. More incredible than that, they genuinely love this age group. They serve because they want to know your student’s name, ask about their week, and point them toward Jesus.
Do Students meet on Sundays?
Yes! Our Sunday Student Classes meet every Sunday from 9:15–10:15 AM in the Student Center for students in 6th–12th grade. It's a place where students can grow in their faith, ask honest questions and discover what it means to follow Jesus through biblical teaching, authentic friendships and caring leaders.
Students are also encouraged to join the 10:30 AM worship service in the Worship Center, where they can worship alongside the church and find their place in the life of Gateway.
