High School Ministry

Our Mission

The Southcrest High School ministry exists to help students (9th-12th graders) find their greatest pleasure and purpose in Jesus.

Wednesday Nights + Sunday Mornings

Gather

Join us Wednesday Nights at 6:20 pm in Room #2206 for worship, fellowship, and time in God's Word. Sunday mornings we meet at 11 am in Room #2206 as we dig into God's Word together.

Small Groups

Grow

Outside of our large group settings, students break up into small groups during our Sunday morning time together. This gives us a chance to dive deep into God's Word through life application and discussion time.

Community Outreach & Fellowship

Serve + Go

Join us as we do outreach in the community and have fellowship where friendships can grow stronger. We have high school summer camp, fall retreat, and United Weekend!

Delia Maddox

Student Ministry Assistant

Delia and her family moved around a lot after initially joining the church in 1987, but they always considered Southcrest to be their home. In 2005, Delia became a part of our staff. She and her husband Jeff have 3 children; Andrew, Felicia, and Gracie.
