STUDENTS

Kirby Students exists to walk alongside students and their parents as they navigate the middle and high school years. We believe that every person is on a journey toward spiritual maturity in Christ and is being equipped to follow faithfully where God leads.

In our Student Ministry, we pursue this vision by consistently teaching God’s Word, providing meaningful times of worship and fellowship, and offering opportunities to serve our local community and the nations. Our goal is to equip students to grow in Christ and live out their faith in their homes, schools, teams, and everyday lives.


Student Ministry Rhythm

Sunday Mornings
On the first Sunday of each month, we host Breakfast Sunday. This is a special time of fellowship when students gather and invite other Sunday School classes to join us.

On all other Sundays, students meet in the Student Room (W311). From 9:00–9:30 AM, we spend time in fellowship, enjoy donuts, and hear important announcements. From 9:30–10:15 AM, students break into gender-specific small groups for Bible study and discussion.

Wednesday Night Gatherings

On Wednesday evenings, students gather in the Student Room from 6:15–7:30 PM for worship, biblical teaching, and fellowship. This midweek gathering is a key opportunity for students to deepen their faith and build a strong community.

Annual Events

Throughout the year, Kirby Students participates in and hosts several impactful events, including:

  • Come As You Aren’t Halloween Party

  • Fall Retreat

  • Friendsgiving (Bingo Night)

  • DNOW (Disciple Now Weekend)

  • Summer Camp

  • High School Mission Trip
