If you spend any time around our church at all, you'll quickly learn one thing: we love students. They're smart. They're funny. They're bold. And they're bursting with potential.
We truly believe that the middle and high school students in our midst are world changers in the making. We know that the middle and high schools years are a time where students are most in need of kindness and community and someone to walk alongside them as they grow. Our student ministry provides just that, connecting students with one another as well as with leaders who want to support them in their journeys. Both middle and high school groups meet weekly, each focusing on worship, teaching, and small groups to encourage students in their faith.

Who We Are
The Brotherhood of Faith is a diverse group of men united by our unwavering faith and commitment to building up one another, serving our community, and growing spiritually.
Our members come from all walks of life, spanning various ages, races, and backgrounds. At Brotherhood for Faith, we believe that our shared questions and concerns, no matter how complex or sensitive, are vital conversations to strengthen our faith and understanding. We're a brotherhood where nothing is off the table, and where trust and empathy thrive.
Our Mission
Our primary mission is to provide a safe and nurturing space for men to connect, share, and uplift one another. We understand that life's challenges can be daunting, but together, we find strength in vulnerability. Beyond our group discussions and support sessions, we're committed to taking our faith into action. We actively engage in community service projects, striving to make a difference in the lives around us.
Our Motto
Our motto, inspired by Proverbs 27:17, encapsulates our belief in the power of community: "As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another." We embrace this wisdom by sharpening each other's faith, character, and understanding through honest conversations, mutual support, and shared experiences.
