High School Student Ministry
Sunday School :: What's Your Identity?
Sundays // 10:15-11a // Crossroads Room
Imagine the first time you meet someone. As you introduce yourself to them, what things do you identify about yourself? Are you an athlete? Brainiac? Musician? Everyone finds their identity in something - many of them are great things - but ultimately we are offered an identity in Christ that is secure and eternal. Join us this summer as we focus on the book of Ephesians and discover what it means to be a high school student and find our identity "in Christ”.

Note to Nursery Parents
As you may have noticed, we now have a
new check-in system for the church nursery. There are so many benefits to this new system! For example, when you check-in your child, any special needs you would like us to be aware of (allergies, a favorite blanket, potty training, etc.) will be printed on the child’s name tag sticker and highlighted for the nursery volunteers to clearly see.
Also, with this new system we will page parents through text messages to your cell phone. Please be sure to bring your phone to church and have it turned on to
vibrate, so we have an effective way to contact you if your child needs you.
Our goal is to care for all the children in a loving, safe and secure way. Thank you for helping us do this! God bless you and your little ones!
