Athey Jr. High is a place for students to have fun, connect with friends, and be built up in their faith.
The goal for the Athey Jr. High Youth Ministry is for all students to know Jesus, learn to walk with Him, and to develop a Christ-centered worldview.
The vision of Athey Youth is to provide safe and engaging environments and opportunities for students to:
- Hear and learn about Jesus (passively understand the Bible).
- Make their faith their own (personally handle the truth).
- Become a disciple-maker (publicly proclaim their faith).
Environments
We strive to create an environment that is safe, high-quality, fun, and intentionally focused on the needs of our youth so that they become rooted in Christ through active participation in their personal Christian walks.
Opportunities
We feel it is a privilege to challenge and enable the students we encounter (both online and in-person) to follow and glorify Jesus.

Come to Church
Wednesday night and weekend through-the-Bible teaching is central to the Youth Ministry. From Jr. High and onward, all students are encouraged to attend the primary services in the sanctuary with the adults.
Attend Youth Night
The church is open Thursday night for both Jr. High and High School. The Jr. High meets downstairs in the Multipurpose Room and lower foyer - the High School meets upstairs in the sanctuary and upper foyer. There are fun games and activities, snacks, and time spent in worship and God's Word. If it's your first time, make sure to meet one of the youth leaders to get acquainted!
