A place where students own their faith, connect with God and fellowship with one another.
Georgetown Christian Student Ministry exists so students can grow and engage their beliefs alongside friends and leaders who care. It’s not just about the events, the hangouts, and fun (although we love all that here)—it’s about getting equipped and empowered for real life by owning your faith and connecting with God and each other. We’d love to see you here! We exist to turn everyday students into fully developled followers of Jesus Christ.
SUNDAY MORNING ELECTIVE @ 9:00AM
Middle & High School Students (5th-12th)
Meets upstairs in The Warehouse
During Sunday Morning Elective, we focus on getting to know our bible. A couple of years ago, we went into the Torah (the first five books of the bible). We took a year in the Gospel of John. Now we have returned to the Old Testament and are reading through Joshua and Judges. It's so important that we see the foundations that are built in the the bible. We start out each Sunday morning with some breakfast, some fellowship, and then move into small groups of middle school and high school. These small groups allow time to read the scripture and apply it to their individual lives.
SUNDAY NIGHT FELLOWSHIP @ 6:00-8:00PM
Middle & High School Students (5th-12th)
Meets in the Gym
Sunday nights are a time for students to interact with other students and learn more about their faith. Big games, big worship, and a big message to impact their lives as they strive to impact those around them. At the start of each meeting for games, food, fellowship and worship, we all gather together. After the lesson, we separate into small groups of middle school and high school for deeper topics. Currently, students are studying the three big questions that every teenager struggles with: Who am I? Where do I fit? What's my purpose?
GCC Students Bible Study
Thursday Night at Tommy Hobb's House from 7:30-8:30. This is a time where students from 6th grade through high school get to know each other through prayer, devotion, and a good meal.

DUBS
DUBS stands for Destination Unknown Bible Study. During this week, incoming 6th grade through outgoing 8th grade students spend the week learning about God, learning about a mission throughout the community, serving in the community and having a blast learning with other believers. Each morning, students have a devotional before leaving for a local mission. While on an unknown destination mission (who knows, maybe the city dump), students eat a sack lunch and then go to an another unknown destination for some fun and fellowship. They might go to a water park or to Holiday World. Click here to sign up.
