GRACESTUDENTS
Partnering with parents to help students take their next step toward Christ.
We want students to own their faith and grow in their faith, together.
Gracestudents56
Gracestudents56 meets your fifth and sixth graders right in the middle of their big questions and big energy, creating a space where faith feels fun, real, and made just for them. This unique environment helps bridge the transition from elementary to middle school as students take a more mature look at Bible stories, talk about real-life topics, and ask honest questions about what they believe. Students begin the worship service with their families and are dismissed after communion to meet their leaders in the lobby. GS56 meets at all services.
7TH – 12TH GRADE
Student Sunday Nights
Every Sunday from 5–7p, 7th–12th graders gather to have fun, encounter Jesus, and process real life in community. The night starts with dinner and hangout time, then moves into worship, teaching, and small groups split by guys and girls so students can talk honestly and grow together.

FAQs
How do I register my students?
For 5th and 6th grade students, start at Family Guest Services when your family arrives for worship. Our team will help you get checked in and ensure you and your student know exactly where to go. For students in 7th–12th grade, our Sunday Night Connections team will meet them at the door on their first night, help them get signed in, and make sure they know exactly what to expect that night.
What about special needs?
Our Sidekick Ministry pairs kids and students with a caring, consistent one-on-one sidekick who helps them participate, grow, and feel at home in Gracekids and Gracestudents. Because each child and student needs a Sidekick in place before attending, we currently have a waiting list and anticipate opening spots again in Spring 2026. A sidekick is for any child who could use extra support, whether due to learning differences, medical needs, giftedness, or simply needing a familiar, steady presence.
What if you need to get in touch with me during services?
For all first-time kids and 5th and 6th-grade students, we ask for a parent or guardian cell phone number at check-in. We will text you during the service if there is any concern about your child.
What about safety?
We take security and safety seriously at Grace. Every volunteer is background-checked and trained through Ministry Safe, and our matching tag system ensures secure drop-off and pick-up for your 5th and 6th-grade student. You’ll also see our safety team present throughout our ministry spaces, offering an extra layer of care. On Sunday nights, we have an officer on-site and our safety team present throughout our ministry spaces as well.
My student is interested in getting baptised. What do we do?
