Welcome NorthPoint Students

NorthPoint Students exists to create a place of belonging for students to look to Jesus, embrace community, and engage culture. Students experience this through weekly large group & small group meetings, events, retreats, and serving opportunities.  

Currently, Middle School meets on Wednesday evenings from 6:30 - 8:00 pm at NorthPoint. High School meets on Sunday evenings from 6:00 - 8:00 pm at NorthPoint. These are times where students experience student-led worship and Biblical teaching, intentional discipleship in adult-led small groups, connection and fun with their peers in community, and more!

Student Missions

Upcoming Mission: July 6-12, 2025

Jesus calls us to love and serve others, just as He demonstrated through His life and teaching. Missions give us the chance to follow His example—whether by serving locally or in communities around the world. Student missions experiences aren’t only about helping others and having fun (though, we certainly will!); they also transform and disciple us.
