Christ Church Students
Mission & Vision
Our mission is to glorify God as we make, mature, and mobilize disciples of Jesus Christ by loving Jesus and loving like Jesus in the world. Here in Student Ministries, we fulfill this mission by creating a safe space where students can know and be known, and for adults to provide Godly encouragement.
Below are weekly opportunities for students to grow in their faith, along with events and trips that students can participate in throughout the year.

It is a week where they learn a great deal about being the hands and feet of Christ, and is a launching point for living a lifestyle of service.

The Bridge
The Bridge is a ministry specifically for 6th graders as they transition from children’s ministry to student ministry. On the weeks that we meet together for D-Groups are the weeks that 6th graders will gather for The Bridge. Middle school can be an awesome experience, but we also recognize that change, while exciting, can also be a little bit scary. MS can be a BIG step, and we want to help prepare you for all the wonderful things that are to come!
The Bridge is all about PREPARATION. We want to prepare and equip 6th graders with a better understanding of student ministry, a better understanding of middle school, and most importantly, a better understanding of Jesus.
For The Bridge we cover a wide range of topics, ranging from Personal & Corporate Worship, Christian Community & Service.
Be sure that you are on our weekly Parent Email list – we send out updates & more details regarding our Emerge experience.
