Students

Stonegate Student Ministry serves 6th - 12th grade students. Our experienced staff is committed to building truths into students that lead to a risk-taking and courageous faith. Stonegate students attend the Sunday service with their family.  Here is when we meet during the week:  


 

 

With that, here is more information in regards to the Stonegate Student Ministry and what we do on Wednesday nights:


GOAL:  to make disciples

 

MEANS:  Gospel, Community & Mission

  1. Gospel: A disciple understands who God is, the fall of man, and the work of Christ.  In short, a disciple knows the Gospel.  
  2. Community: A disciple experiences deep, fruitful relationships with other believers.  In short, a disciple is in Christian Community.  
  3. Mission: A disciple engages in the mission of God by sharing the Gospel with non-believers. In short, a disciple is On-Mission.  
 
HOW: We meet every Wednesday night at the Conference Center from 7:00pm - 8:15pm.  In light of the above Goal and Means, here is how we structure the Student Ministry (Note: "On Ramps" are events that we do in addition to our weekly meetings.  "On Ramps" are designed to help strengthen and augment Gospel, Community and Mission.): 
 
 
STEP 1  ::  GOSPEL  ::  RENEW SERVICE
