Students Ministry

We exist to raise up a generation of students who are fully surrendered to God and his purposes on the earth.

5th–6th Grade

FiveSix

The FiveSix family is a life-giving community for 5th and 6th grade students to grow in friendship with God and with each other. We meet for an hour during the weekend services and host fun, off-site events throughout the year. We’d love to have you join us!

When

We meet during the weekend services.

The FiveSix classroom is across the lobby in the Gathering Room.

Students are dismissed to their class after worship. No security tag is needed for student pickup at the end of the service.

7th–12th Grade

Through Sunday night gatherings, connection events, regional youth gatherings, and summer mission trips, we want each student to be deeply connected to God and others.

ECC Youth Student Group Registration (2025-2026)

We believe life change and freedom in Christ are found and sustained in community. We encourage all 7th-12th grade students to register to be part of a small group and experience the gift of authentic relationships.

Youth Apologetics Course

Designed specifically for youth, this 7-week course will equip students with tools to cultivate a resilient faith in Jesus, helping them defend and advance the gospel. This group will meet on Thursday nights at ECC from 6:30pm-8:30pm starting October 2.

Serve at ECC

You are not too young to make a difference! We believe God has uniquely equipped every believer with a purpose. In serving others, God continues to shape and form us to be more like Jesus. Whatever your gifting, interests, or schedule—there is a place for you on an ECC Serve Team.

Youth Worship

Testimonies Of Hope

We encourage students to share stories of God at work in their lives. Testimonies encourage others to overcome and find freedom through surrendering their lives to Jesus.
