Students begin arriving at 6:30pm for hangout time—playing games, connecting with friends and small group leaders, and meeting new people. At 6:45pm, we kick things off in Large Group, where everyone comes together for announcements, a time of worship, and a message from our Students Director, Team Leaders, or a Small Group Leader. Afterward, students break out into small groups, divided by guys and girls. This is where they dive deeper into the message, build meaningful friendships, and pray with one another in a safe, encouraging environment.

Our small groups are designed to be a place where students can belong, where they’re seen, and where they can discover how their one life can make a difference. They provide a safe and welcoming space for students to be real about life, ask honest questions about God, and learn how to follow Jesus together. Our groups are separated by middle school and high school, and also by guys and girls. This helps students build meaningful friendships with peers in their same stage of life, while being encouraged by trusted leaders who are committed to walking alongside them. In small groups, students don’t get lost in the crowd—they’re noticed, known, and cared for. Most importantly, small groups help students grow closer to Jesus while learning how to live out their faith where they live, learn, and play.

There will be no OneLife Students on Wednesday, November 26th, due to Thanksgiving. We hope you have a restful week and a great time celebrating with the people you love. We’ll be back to our normal schedule next week. Stay tuned for upcoming announcements and ways to keep the conversation going at home—we’ve got some great things in store! Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
