Our middle and high school student spaces are focused on immersing teens in a rich, Christ-centered small group environment.

Sundays | 9:00 & 10:30 AM

Sixth Grade Ministry is a bridge between our Kids Ministry and Browncroft Students, helping students take the next steps in owning their faith for themselves. During this important season of transition, students move from primarily hearing Bible stories to learning how to open God’s Word, understand what it says, and discover how it applies to their everyday lives.
 
Through engaging Bible studies, small-group conversations, and meaningful relationships with leaders and peers, students are encouraged to ask questions, grow in their understanding of Scripture, and build habits that will help them follow Jesus for a lifetime. We also want to partner with families as they encourage their students to engage with the Bible at home and develop a faith that continues to grow beyond Sunday mornings.

7th - 12th Grade

Wednesdays | 6:30 – 8:30 PM

Browncroft Youth is a place for students in grades 7–12 to grow in their relationship with Jesus, build meaningful friendships, and discover what it looks like to live out their faith every day. We believe students aren’t just the future of the Church—they’re an important part of the Church right now!

We gather on Wednesday nights for worship, biblical teaching, small-group conversations, and time to have fun and build community. Students have opportunities to ask honest questions, explore Scripture, pray together, and encourage one another as they learn to follow Jesus. Through small groups, retreats, serving opportunities, and student leadership, we want to help every student feel known, develop meaningful relationships with trusted leaders, and grow in their confidence to live out their faith.

Utilizing mentorship, games, worship, and studying the Bible, we invite all youth to a life transformed by Jesus. Through the kindness, compassion, and generosity, and truth found in Him, we aim to help them grow in their love for God, for each other, and for our local community…

Any Middle School or High School students in 7th – 12th grade! We have students join us from a variety of different schools, including Penfield, Webster, Rochester, Victor, Gananda, Gates, Henrietta, and others. We believe having a diverse community is incredibly valuable to our ministry. No matter your race, gender, interests, story, or experience with Christianity, we want you to be here with us.

We believe close relationships are the best way for students to grow. A small group is a group of 5-12 individuals of the same grade and gender. Small groups are led by hand-picked Small Group Leaders who want to be a part of your child’s life. Small groups foster close friendships and often get together outside of Wednesday nights to do service projects, Bible studies, or just hang out. Community is key to our student’s personal and spiritual growth.
