River Run Student Ministry exists to equip students with a deep love for Christ while empowering parents to form and influence the heart of their student. We accomplish this by teaching the gospel, providing outreach opportunities, pouring God’s truths into their lives through small groups and one-on-one mentoring situations and providing support and information to the parents.  Through each opportunity provided, students should be challenged to examine their lives and compare them with God’s standards so they may be continually growing in their faith.

Christmas Party - December 16th

Wear your ugliest/best Christmas sweaters/pajamas/attire and join us Wednesday night from 6-8 PM for the best party you’ll attend all season! We’ll have big prizes for those who come decked out in their best (or worst😬) Christmas outfits!

Bring a White Elephant gift. We are doing a “Make It, Bake It, or Recycle It White Elephant Exchange”.  Make a gift if you are crafty or have a super hobby/skill, bake something delicious, or recycle something terrific from home that is just taking up space.  No purchased gifts for this exchange.

Come hungry, too, because you know we can’t party without F O O D. Bring a friend and come celebrate with us! We can’t wait to see you!

FUSE ONLINE WEEKLY - WEDNESDAY

FUSE Online is our weekly, digital meeting for students in grades 6th-12th. It’s a great opportunity for students to connect with leaders and their friends during an age where connection is vital. Each service begins with high-energy games and then dives into biblically-based teaching with our student pastor, Brian.  It’s is a great way to provide steps to deepening our faith and growing in our relationships with God and each other. Services are held on Zoom and each week, we share meeting links on our Facebook and Instagram. Stay connected and follow us on social media so you can join in on the fun!

for Middle & High School

GROUP NIGHT - WEEKLY @ 6pm

God created us to connect with Him and each other. Everyone needs community, even students…ESPECIALLY students. 

We want to offer our students a safe place to grow and thrive with others as we all learn what it looks like to be a Christ follower in a world that doesn’t know Christ. Small groups are the perfect place to do just that. We have groups for middle school boys, middle school girls, high school boys, and high school girls.
 
We believe that by simply showing up, joining up, and being real, our students will find incredible encouragement through their connections with God and other people.
 
*Every student will be required to wear a mask and observe 6′ social distance to ensure a safe environment from COVID. Please do not attend if you have had symptoms or been exposed to COVID within 10 days.
 

If you're joining us in person come hangout at 6pm on Wednesdays.

CONNECT ONLINE AT THESE TIMES:
HS Girls: 7pm
MS Girls: 7pm
All Boys: 7pm 
 

Graduation Celebration

Graduation season is here! Come and celebrate our graduates on Sunday, May 23 during our 10:45 AM gathering as we recognize them in service and pray over them ahead of their new journeys. This will be a great opportunity to wish our graduates and their families well, or even bring a gift for them if you planned on recognizing them in that way.
