Youth

Aftershock is our youth ministry. We meet in the Fellowship Hall every Wednesday night at 7:00. Most weeks include games, prizes, worship, a message and a lot of fun.
Most importantly, we strive to create an environment where students can grow in their relationship with God and invite their friends here to do the same.
Of course we've been to known to have students eat spam, do ridiculous relays and drink blended Happy Meals.......so you never know for sure what Aftershock might be up to. Though we promise you one thing for showing up.....we'll give you a free soda.
Every month with a 5th Wednesday has a special activity. In the past this has included Aftershock Olympics, Photo Scavenger Hunts and Game Nights. And we have other activities going on all the time.
Check out the events calendar to see what youth events are coming up.

Youth Worship Team
At Aftershock, we don't think worship has to be boring. We like loud music and cool lights. But, we never forget the reason why we worship or the One whom we worship, Jesus Christ. Because of that, we seek to use our God-given talents, abilities and... [more]
