Student Experiences

STUDENT MINISTRY AT ZION IS A PLACE WHERE THE CHRISTIAN FAITH AND REAL LIFE CONVERGE THROUGH RELEVANT ENVIRONMENTS THAT HELP JUNIOR AND SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS EXPERIENCE GOD’S LOVE AND EXPAND THEIR UNDERSTANDING OF HIS PURPOSE AND PLAN FOR THEIR DAILY LIVES.

THE GARAGE (Clarion Campus)
Sundays 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm - high energy, fun and a whole lot more

These evenings generate an atmosphere of excitement and encouragement for large groups of high school students and creates for them the ideal place to connect with God and friends. Students have an all access pass to the recreation center that has booths, cafe' tables, televisions, pool, air hockey and Internet access. Students can choose to play at any of four video game stations with Xbox360, Wii, Playstation3, GameCube and Dance Pad systems. The Pit Stop snack shop serves hot dogs, nachos, pretzels, Slush Puppies, cappuccinos and candy. Students will also attend a worship service where live contemporary music, multimedia and dramas set the stage for a time of relevant teaching and worship.

FIRST FRIDAYS (Petroleum Valley Campus)
a place for fun and focus

First Fridays are designed to be a gathering place for students in the Petroleum Valley. These monthly events will vary in theme and location, but will be consistent in purpose...lots of fun and ongoing spiritual growth.

SMALL GROUPS
strength in small numbers

Students can find the necessary ingredients for support and encouragement through the building of relationships with others who are going through similar life experiences.
Clarion Campus– Sundays at 9:00am
Petroleum Valley Campus– coming soon

MISSION ADVENTURES
a ministry experience like no other
Every summer the junior and senior high students of Zion have the opportunity to experience first hand what life is like outside their comfort zone. They can see God at work in a place that looks nothing like home. These trips allow God to challenge and stretch them to do more than they have ever done before for His glory. The trip is a time to serve and minister instead of being served.
