High School and Middle School Ministry
Riverwood Student Ministries partners with families to empower students to develop an authentic and lasting faith in Jesus Christ in which they understand, articulate, and are transformed by the gospel, and embrace their place in the church family.
We recognize that we are fully dependent on the work of the Holy Spirit in order for this to be accomplished.
In order to achieve this, students will need to trust in God’s authority, reject spiritual apathy, and be counter cultural. We desire to accomplish this vision by discipling students through teaching and leaders that are shaped by God’s word, by connecting them to a fun and meaningful small group community, and by equipping and mobilizing them to love and serve others for the glory of God.
