Welcome to Summit Students!
Summit Students is the youth ministry at Summit Church for students in 6th-12th grade. Here, we hang out, make new friends, and develop our relationship with God and each other through messages, small group time, and serving one another and our community.

Curriculum – Good Enough
Good Enough is a four-session sermon series, exploring what it means to be good enough for God to use us. Here’s the truth: none of us are good enough on our own. Yet, God chooses each of us for a glorious purpose within His plans, and only He can help us fulfill it. Join us as we discover how God’s strength is made perfect in our weakness and how He can use anyone for His purposes.
