Our goal at element student ministry is to provide a place where students can bring their friends. Where they can come and have a good time without the hassles of the world. We want our students to be comfortable and not feel like they have to put their church face on.
We also want our students to be challenged in the way they live. Understanding that because we come to church, doesn’t mean that we are carbon cut outs of nice, polite, clean, never dirty Christ followers. We all struggle. We all have issues. We all have fears. But as Christians we are called to be “little Christ.”
Living the life of a teenager is already difficult. When you add, living a pure and holy life to the drama and issues of the teenage life – it seems almost impossible. Our goal at element is to come beside them during these years to help, guide, and show Christ.

ELEMENT is our main outreach tool for all our students to take part in during the week. This is seen as the open door into our student ministry. It is an atmosphere in which a non Christian feels comfortable, and a Christ follower is able to fellowship with other students in a relevant, comfortable setting.
We go against the stereo type that church is boring, quiet, and God isn’t relevant to daily life. ELEMENT is fun, full of life, with a band, silly videos, and a message crafted just for students. We have both a hs night and ms night to build each service specifically for the age groups. We strongly encourage our regular students to bring friends with them to Element.
FUEL CELLS are designed for students to go beyond just the message they hear from the stage, and grow closer to Christ through discipleship. Fuel cells will be held on the same night of element. At the end of the night we split in groups by age and gender. In the groups questions will be asked about what the speaker spoke on from the stage. Our goal is not only for students to hear a solid message, but to put into practice in their lives. We think discussing the topics each week begins the application in their lives.
Fuel Cells are our small groups for Element. We see fuel cells as a balance of transparency, intimacy, depth, and interaction. Discipleship is about inviting others into your life, and sharing how Christ has molded you into the vessel you are.
