FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What ages/grades is Elevate Youth for?
Elevate is for students in 6th-12th grade (middle school and high school). We have age-appropriate programming for both groups.
What happens on a typical Wednesday night?
Doors open at 6:00 PM for hangout time. At 6:30 we kick off with high-energy worship, followed by a relevant message, and small group discussion. We wrap up at 8:30 PM.
Is there a background check process for leaders?
Yes! Every adult volunteer and staff member completes a thorough background check and training before working with students.
How can I stay informed about events?
Follow us on Instagram @elevateyouth for weekly updates, or sign up for our parent email list. We also have a parent GroupMe for last-minute announcements.
My student doesn't know anyone. Will they fit in?
We get it—showing up alone is scary. Our Connect Team specifically looks for new students to welcome. We also recommend starting with a small group where your student can build deeper friendships.
What is your stance on phones during services?
We encourage students to be present, but we don't confiscate phones. We do ask that phones stay away during worship and the message so students can engage fully.
