Students
A place to belong for students.
We believe that faith is meant to be lived out in community which is why we offer youth groups for students! A place to connect, feel known, and grow with others while exploring our faith and relationship with Jesus. Read more about our youth groups below:
Middle School.
On Wednesday nights during the school year our middle schoolers meet from 6-7:30pm in the Pond Room at Meetinghouse. A typical Wednesday night includes an hour where we’ll play games and wrestle God’s story and how it intersects with our stories and topics of social justice, followed by a half hour of small groups where students can be fully known, fully accepted, and provided with a place to talk about stuff that matters. We prioritize fun because it opens the door for relationships — with one another, the leaders who care, and with God as we explore together how God’s story connects with our stories. Save the Date for our Fall Kickoff Sep. 11, 2024!
All middle schoolers (this includes our upcoming 5th graders) are invited to join us for one or all of these summer experiences! We combine a service project for our church mission partners with some summer fun. Click here for all the details and to sign up!
Middle schoolers who have completed grades 6-8 are invited to join us for the ultimate summer celebration! A full day at valleyfair PLUS a church lock in (sleepover at the church!). We will meet at church at 1:30pm, stay at Valleyfair until 8:30pm then come back to church for night games, snacks, movies and maybe a little sleeping! Pick up will be Monday morning between 8am-9am. Friends are (always) welcome and scholarships are available. Sign up here!
During Wednesdays from September – May, dinner is available at 5:30pm for those who can arrive early.
There is no registration required for Wednesday evening attendance.
If you’re an adult looking to volunteer with the middle school youth, email us here.
If your student requires special attention, email us here and we’ll work together to create the best experience for them.
We encourage your students to invite their friends; they are always welcome!
High School.
We strive to create spaces where every student feels safe to be themselves and embrace their belovedness, while forming meaningful relationships and exploring together what it means to follow Jesus in real life. We also make sure to prioritize fun! A typical Wednesday night includes games, learning, small group discussions, and navigating the complexities of everyday faith. Save the Date for our Fall Kickoff Sep. 11, 2024!
High schoolers meet from September to May from 7:30 – 9pm in the Pond Room (right after our middle schooler meets).

Current 8th-12th graders are invited on a weeklong trip to New Orleans this summer. We’ll partner with St. Bernard Project working on homes, be hosted by a local church, explore the culture and deepen community. Contact Nicole with questions.
Confirmation.
At Meetinghouse, Confirmation is where 8th-grade students can reflect deeply on their faith journey. The yearlong journey involves engaging with the core beliefs of Christian faith and how it connects to all aspects of life, and culminates on Confirmation Sunday, where students will have the opportunity to confirm their desire to continue their faith journey as members at Meetinghouse. Save the Date Confirmation Sunday is October 6th, 2024!
At Meetinghouse Church, everyone is welcome. Period. Regardless of school, neighborhood, gender, race, church history or identity. We specifically affirm and celebrate our LGBTQIA+ friends. We intend to build our community on love, acceptance, and unity, celebrating the unique image of God within each of us.
