What to Expect
At our student gatherings on Friday nights, students can expect to experience biblical teaching, fun age appropriate games, and community and fellowship with others as they connect in small groups with adult leaders for discussion, mentorship, and prayer. Our leaders strive to connect with your students and be a positive example of what a healthy relationship with God is all about.
Be sure to keep up to date with anything Valley Students by following our calendar!
We are in Easter season so be aware there is no student gathering next Friday (April 18th) in observance of Good Friday but be sure to join us online as we celebrate the sacrifice Jesus made for us as we share communion as a church family together.
3 days later we will celebrate his resurrection at Valley Church 9am, 10:30am, and 12pm so if you don't have a church home to celebrate with we would love to celebrate the good news that "HE HAS RISEN" with you!
This Saturday we as a church will be having a day of prayer starting at 8am and ending at 2pm, whether you would like to come for an hour or stay for the whole day you are welcome and invited!

Real Life, Real Faith
Real life requires real faith. Let’s be real: life can be tough. Sometimes, saying 'Hallelujah' feels less like a win and more like a struggle. In this series, we’re diving into the book of James to discover how we can take control and find joy—even when things get rough. Join us as we explore practical tips and inspiration for tackling life’s ups and downs together!
Small Group for High Schoolers
Are you ready to dive deeper into your faith? Immerse is a small group designed for high school students who want to explore their beliefs and grow spiritually together. In a world filled with distractions, we believe that taking intentional time to connect with God and each other is crucial.
Join us as we discuss meaningful topics, tackle tough questions, and discover how faith impacts our daily lives. Through engaging discussions, activities, and shared experiences, we’ll immerse ourselves in scripture and learn how to live out our faith authentically.
One of the best parts of Immerse is the chance to meet like-minded teens who are on a similar journey. You’ll build friendships with others who share your values and are eager to support each other in your faith. Together, we’ll create a community where everyone feels welcome and encouraged.
Whether you’re just starting your faith journey or looking to deepen your understanding, Immerse is the perfect place for you. Let’s journey together, support one another, and grow closer to God and each other!
