We welcome all who feel young at heart, but specifically 6th-12th graders! If you or your teens are looking for an uplifting community and a safe space, then you have found the right place.
Any students in grade 8 and up who haven't yet been confirmed are invited to join us for a year of faith development. Students meet weekly on Sundays, 2–3PM, in Room 212.
Starting September 2023, our Youth Group will meet on Sundays, from 5:30–7PM. Youth Group is a great opportunity to get involved, develop a closer relationship with God, stay engaged, and have fun with a community of young people at Woods.
In 2024, our High School Mission Trip, WoodsWork, will be headed to Roanoke, Virginia, to build homes, relationships, and community. The trip will be from June 18–26, and all high schoolers—rising freshmen through graduated seniors—are invited, so mark your calendars! Registration will be open soon!
Youth Group at Woods
Our Youth Group meets every Sunday in Fellowship Hall, 5:30–7PM, for fun, fellowship, and community. We strive to make Youth Group a safe and welcoming space for all Youth. Newcomers are welcome!
Sunday School
Sunday School meets every Sunday in the Youth Room (212) at 9:30AM. Classes are structured so that each week a lesson is taught by an adult leader, followed by a question time for youth. This is a great opportunity to have fun and connect with others as we're taught about God's Word and message.
MIDDLE SCHOOL:
Follow along the New Testament and grow your understanding of Christ's role in our lives.
Room 208
HIGH SCHOOL:
This personalized and unique experience is tailored for High School students who want to continue to grow in their faith and ask questions about life, faith, and discipleship.

Mission Projects and Partnerships
The primary mission activity for Woods youth is our summer WoodsWork project. This is a mission trip for youth and adult volunteers to build houses for those in need. Woods Church has been partnered with Habitat for Humanity for over 37 years to provide this opportunity to our youth. To gear up for WoodsWork, we host an annual picnic table build, where the picnic tables are donated to Habitat for Humanity.
Woods Church also works with various advocacy organizations, such as Winter Relief, in an effort to create a better environment for people in our surrounding communities. We also have multiple fundraisers throughout the year that support the important work of various nonprofits that address income inequalities, mental health, homelessness, and others in need. Woods partners with Winter Relief for a select number of weeks throughout the season of winter to provide shelter, warm meals, and hygeine maintenance opportunities for anyone seeking emergency shelter during that time.
Family Involvement
The Youth Ministry aims to make progressive, fun, and valuable decisions for youth at Woods – it's also a great way for families to get involved with our church. Those who are members of the Youth Ministry have the opportunity to make decisions surrounding the organization of mission trips, Sunday School, Confirmation classes, and the Youth Group—all of which positively impact the youth at Woods.
Over the years, Woods has remained active in the community here and abroad, challenging our young people to make a positive difference in Christ's name wherever they go.
