A PLACE TO BE KNOWN AND VALUED

WHFC desires to create a place where students are known and valued as we guide upcoming generations to follow Jesus and be the church through biblical teaching and the challenge to grow in their faith.

SIXTH GRADE

We understand that 6th grade is a big year of change for many kids, which is why we are excited to offer a “transition year” for our 6th graders! We invite them to join us on Sunday mornings at The Porch for CREW, and to participate in our weekly Student Ministries program on Wednesday nights.

MIDDLE SCHOOL

Every week, we seek to point students to Jesus and challenge them to grow in their relationship with Christ through Biblical teaching, consistent small groups, and fellowship with one another, with the ultimate goal that students would own their faith.

HIGH SCHOOL

We believe every student is called to make disciples. Through relational small groups, worship gatherings, and both relevant and challenging teaching, we hope their time in WHFCStudents will empower, encourage, and equip each student to become a fully devoted follower of Christ.

SENIORS
SENIORS

We know that senior year can come with a lot of change and excitement as students prepare for adulthood. Every May, we host a ‘Grad Prep’ class and reception for seniors and their parents as each student uniquely prepares for the changes and challenges to come. Seniors are also invited to participate in Senior Sunday celebrations at church and are encouraged to check out our Young Adult ministry for ages 18-25.

A YEAR AT A GLANCE

DURING THE SCHOOL YEAR

Middle schoolers and high schoolers gather across several venues throughout the WHFC campus. Our Check-In team will be ready to welcome you and show you where to go!

SIX WEEKS OF SUMMER

While we might not be gathering on campus this summer, mark your calendars for six weeks of summer meet-ups around town!

STUDENT SERVE

We believe students are an important part of the local church. We want to create a place where you can participate in ministry on Sunday mornings at WHFC.
