Welcome to Summit Students!
Summit Students is the youth ministry at Summit Church for students in 6th-12th grade. Here, we hang out, make new friends, and develop our relationship with God and each other through messages, small group time, and serving one another and our community.

Curriculum
January: Identity
Middle School
When God made you, He didn’t mass-produce you. He formed you, fearfully and wonderfully, as His own masterpiece. The world will tell you that you’ve got to copy someone else to fit in — wear their armor, chase their standard, live their story. But God says you belong as you are, because He made you on purpose. And when you live as His original, you discover what His Word has always said: You are chosen, created, and never alone. Our prayer is that students will see it, feel it, and believe it—they are chosen, created, and never alone.
High School
Everywhere students look, someone’s asking them to prove who they are—through likes, achievements, or belonging to the right crowd. But God already knows and verifies their worth. This series helps students trade the pressure to perform for the peace of being known and loved by the One who made them. Our prayer is that by the end of this series, students will find their confidence not in what others say, but in who God says they are.

Serve With Us
We would not be able to do this without the team of coaches, leaders, and volunteers that we have. If you are interested in being a part of our journey as a leader, mentor, cook, or small group leader, please follow the link below to the Interest Form.
Your student’s safety is one of our top priorities! We ensure that every volunteer has completed Safe Gatherings training which includes a background and reference checks. Summit Students goes to great lengths to ensure that this is a safe environment and an enjoyable place for your student to experience the love of Christ.
