Welcome to Creekside Student Ministries
Creekside Student Ministries exists to help students grow closer to Jesus by helping them connect to God and other believers, grow in their knowledge and love of Jesus and the Bible, serve others in the name of Christ, and reach their community with the hope of the Gospel.
Weekly Gatherings
Sunday Mornings
Meet for a time of fellowship (and donuts), studying God's Word, and discussion! Students are encouraged to also attend the 10:45 worship service following Bible study!
Wednesday Nights
Students meet for games, fellowship, a time of worship, teaching, and time in LifeGroups (small groups divided by grade/gender).
Upcoming Events
NO Bible Study
Sunday, October 18th
There will be NO Bible Study on Sunday, October 18th. Instead, we’ll be joining the rest of the church for Baptism Sunday! Meet us in the main Auditorium (left side) as we celebrate and support other students taking this important step in their faith.
Costume Party
Wednesday, October 28th
6:30-8:30 PM
Time to put those costume ideas to good use! Join us on Wednesday, October 28th for dinner, a game or two (because why not?), some sweet treats, and plenty of time to hang out with friends. Come dressed up, bring your friends, and let’s see who understood the assignment!
Get creative, but keep it fun and family-friendly! Nothing scary, gory, revealing, or questionable. If you have to ask yourself, “Should I wear this to youth group?” you might already have your answer.
Harvest Festival
Saturday, October 31st
5:00-8:30 pm
Come and join us on Saturday, October 31st for our annual Harvest Festival! This is our largest outreach event, providing a great first experience for people on our campus. It's a safe and fun family alternative to Halloween.
Student Ministries will be running the dunk tank, and we'd love your help! If you'd like to volunteer at our booth, or be the one getting dunked, sign up below. There are also plenty of other ways to serve that night, too. Whether you are helping at a booth or just hanging out, we hope to see you there!

Winter Camp 2027 || Save the Date
January 29-31, 2027
We’re going back to Wolf Mountain, January 29–31, 2027! Get ready for a weekend away filled with fellowship, fun, and time spent growing closer to Jesus. We’re excited to step away from our everyday routines, dive into God’s Word, worship together, and make some incredible memories with friends. Our prayer is that this weekend gives students the opportunity to disconnect from the distractions of life and intentionally connect with God and one another.
Sign-ups and more details are coming in October!

Rooted Series
September 9th - November 11th
Wednesday Nights || 6:30-8:30 PM
To be Rooted means to be firmly established and securely embedded in something to the point that your strength, and the strength of that which you are Rooted in are the same. Like a tree with deep roots in the ground, our hope this fall is that you may become Rooted in the love and power of the God who created the entire universe-the God who also created you- and that you would draw your strength not from yourself but from Him.
Join us this fall as we go through Rooted together! As our entire church walks through Rooted, Student Ministries will be doing the same on Wednesday nights. We'll launch the series on Wednesday, September 9th, and continue through November 11th (with the exception of our Costume Party on October 28th). Be sure to join us on launch night! Every student will receive their Rooted book, complete with weekly devotionals that tie into each week's message and LifeGroups discussion.
Baptism Class
Sunday, September 27th
12:15 PM || Room A5
Our next baptism service will be held on Sunday, October 18th. If you are interested in getting baptized, we encourage you to attend this informational class. The class will answer your questions about baptism and prepare you for this step of faith with Jesus. All students wanting to be baptized must attend this class. Click the link below to sign up.
Prayer Gathering
The Venue
September 20th
5:00-6:00 PM
Join us on Sunday, September 20th from 5:00–6:00 PM in the Venue for a special night of prayer with our Creekside church family. Our Student Worship Team will be leading worship, and together we’ll spend intentional time praying for our church, our community, and one another.
We’d love to see our students there! As an added bonus, this night ties in perfectly with what’s coming up in our Rooted series, as the following two Wednesday nights will focus on prayer and include a special prayer experience for our students.
