At Catlin Church, we believe students aren't just the "future" of the church—they are a vital part of it right now. Led by our Student Minister, Joe Sims, our ministry is a place where 6th–12th graders can find community, ask honest questions, and grow in their relationship with Jesus.
First time? No problem. We'll have a seat (and probably a snack) waiting for you. Always feel free to bring a friend!
