Welcome!

The student ministry at Spring Valley Baptist Church exists to make sure the next generation in Northeast Columbia has the opportunity to know Jesus. We believe the decisions made during the teenage years help set the trajectory for the rest of a person’s life, so our programming, teaching, and training are intentionally designed to equip students for a life of godly living. Our goal is simple: that students would learn to love God, love lost people, and love the church. We love new faces, and we’d love the chance to welcome you into our family.

There are three big environments for teenagers in our ministry — Sundays, Midweek, and Events. Each one is designed to strategically invite teenagers on a journey into a deeper relationship with Jesus. Our environments are designed to engage the first-time visitor and the student who grew up in the church.

Sundays

During our Life Groups at 11:00 AM, our middle and high school students meet in the Student Center. On most Sundays, we will start in a large group and transition into Life Groups. Life Groups are small groups usually broken up by grade and gender. They are designed to connect every teenager with a consistent, trustworthy adult and a community of their peers. Students will dig deeper into the lesson and participate in a group conversation here.

Midweek

Middle and high school students meet on Wednesdays during the fall and spring semesters for worship, teaching, and games. Midweek is designed to equip students with tools that they can take home to live a Christian life. Doors to the student center open at 6:00 PM. Our worship service begins at 6:00 PM and dismisses at 7:30 PM.

Events

Throughout the year, we’ll host several big events designed to help teenagers connect with their peers and Jesus.
