HIGH SCHOOL CHRISTCARE

What is High School ChristCare? Each ChristCare group is a small community of faith where the participants grow deeper in relationships with each other and with God. If you have any questions or interested in signing up, please contact Tracy.
YOUTH LEADERSHIP TEAM
Open to all 6th - 12th students
Everyone is a leader (even teens) in one way or another. Whether you are in a formal leadership role or not, you are a leader. Whether you lead at church, school, in the community or in your home this group is for you. On a regular basis we will gather to talk about leadership, life, faith and have some fun. The Youth Leadership Team will take an active role in planning activities for their peers. We have a lot to learn from one another. There will also be some special activities together throughout the year. READY, SET, LEAD!
MISSION TRIPS
Our summer mission trips offer opportunities for youth who have completed grades 8 through 12 and college students to live out and deepen their faith through service. Ascension’s summer youth mission trips provide lasting memories for those who attend.
