Check out how God moved in our students this year at Challenge and celebrate with us!
Why This Matters
We want to plant a seed and water the gospel among the next generation. Challenge is an opportunity for students (currently in 8th through 12th grade) to experience the joy of knowing Jesus and helping others do the same. Join us for a week in Kansas City as we gather with other churches from across the nation to worship God, lean into our faith, and grow together. This opportunity is for students looking to grow more in their faith and leadership. Join us as we drive to Kansas City, stay together in a home, and grow closer to God through this awesome week.

What We Are Doing
Join us as we experience God through worship, messages, breakout sessions, small group discussion and so much more. We’ll walk through the book of Psalms to encounter the unchanging truth of God's love, and how it transforms every place we stand.
We will be driving down to Kansas City together, staying at a local church to have more time as a large group, and hanging out with other churches from across the nation as we grow closer to God together.
