Our Mission
Our mission is to come alongside parents to guide students out of the cultural shallows and into a deep, resilient relationship with Jesus. Together, we strive to anchor our youth in an unbreakable hope, equip them to stand mature against worldly currents, and prepare them to confidently share Christ with the world.
Why We Are Guided by These Truths
To navigate a culture that is constantly shifting, our students need more than temporary excitement—they need timeless biblical guides. We have anchored our ministry in three foundational scriptures that chart a clear path for every student’s spiritual journey.
Anchored in Christ. Unshakable in Truth.
The Anchor | Hebrews 6:19
NIV
We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain.
The Stand | Ephesian 4:14
NLT
Then we will no longer be immature like children. We won’t be tossed and blown about by every wind of new teaching. We will not be influenced when people try to trick us with lies so clever they sound like the truth.
The Send | 1 Peter 3:15
ESV
but in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect.

FAQS
For Parents
What age group is Anchored Youth for?
We welcome all students in 6th through 12th grade. Because middle school and high school are very different phases of life, we make sure our message applications and discussion environments are tailored to be age-appropriate.
How do you keep my teenager safe?
Safety is our absolute highest priority.
- All of our adult leaders undergo a thorough background check and safety training before serving.
- We maintain healthy leader-to-student ratios at all events.
Does it cost anything to join?
Our regular weekly gatherings (Wednesday nights and Sunday mornings) are 100% free! No sign-ups or registration fees required. Occasionally, we will have paid registration for special events, seasonal retreats, or summer camps, but we always offer scholarships because we never want cost to keep a student from participating.
For Students
What if I don’t know anyone there?
Honestly, almost everyone starts out feeling this exact same way! The moment you walk through the door, our welcome team will say hi, help you get checked in, and introduce you to a couple of friendly students in your grade. You won’t have to sit alone or awkwardly wander around.
What should I wear?
Wear whatever you are comfortable in! Most students wear casual school clothes—jeans, t-shirts, hoodies, sneakers. You don't need to dress up to fit in here.
Do I have to bring a Bible, or even believe in God, to come?
Not at all. Whether you’ve grown up in church your whole life, have massive doubts, or are just checking it out because a friend invited you—you are welcome here. If you have a Bible (on your phone or paper), awesome! If not, we've got you covered. This is a safe harbor to ask hard questions and explore faith at your own pace.
