In Shoreline Students, we strive to lead students to become passionate about Jesus’ fame and renown. By partnering with parents and trained leaders, our mission is for students to know Jesus and make Him known through gospel, community, and mission.
Middle School
Every Sunday morning, our middle school students gather for a time of teaching, games, and life groups designed specifically for them. During this hour, students will have a chance to worship together, to learn and study the Word of God together, and to discuss relevant life issues with their peers. Our hope is that this opportunity allows students to go deeper with each other, their leaders, and most importantly, God.
Sundays | 11 AM | Student Room
High School
Our High School Ministry meets in Small Groups on Sunday nights. These groups are led by small group leaders and are the perfect place for discipleship, growth, building relationships, and a better understanding of God's Word. We believe students learn and grow in vulnerable environments in small group settings.

The Rising
This is our weekly Wednesday evening worship service for middle and high school students. This evening consists of worship, teaching, and time of discussion among each other with the guidance of qualified leaders.

They are formed based on several factors including geography, schools, and friendships. When we launch new life groups, we leave space for each group to add members along the way. Students can sign up for life groups at any time. New 6th grade groups start during our sixth grade event Boot Camp, but anyone can join at anytime throughout the year.

We firmly believe that the parent(s) is the primary discipler of their children, the home is the primary place to make disciples, and a biblically based home is the most important component of a healthy society. Parents lay the foundation. We believe our job is support and affirm that foundation with a team of non-parental, committed adults (staff and volunteer leaders) who will be voices of truth and encouragement working "in stereo" with the efforts of parents. The best things parents can do is to connect with and invest in their student's leaders. Invite them into your family and include them as a trusted partner in your parenting adventure.
