To Be Joyful.
Grades 6th - 12th
Equipping students to be joyful disciples of Jesus Christ in their family, the church, and the world
At CRAVE Student Ministries, it is our mission that through partnering with parents, students are equipped to be joyful disciples of Jesus Christ in their family, the church and the world.
We combine Bible-based teaching, authentic small group discussion, Christ-centered worship, and relational-focused events to give a collection of venues for spiritual growth and formation.

“As a parent, I understand how difficult it can be to sift through the endless amount of Christian content aimed at discipling the youth of today. My hope is that you find these resources helpful in discipling your family. I have discovered that most content of this nature can have pitfalls or leave gaps. However, I like to take an approach of "chew on the meat and spit out the bones", meaning, use what is helpful and disregard what isn't. In addition, an open Bible is a great discipleship tool!”
