Ignite is a monthly gathering for our students, which will be held at the Stones Crossing or Seymour campus, the first Sunday of every month, from 5:30-8:00pm for grades 7-12. 

Each Ignite will feature an engaging speaker, worship, and fun activities for our students. This is an evening you'll want to bring your friends and your relentless pursuits. Every week following ignites, students will meet with their small groups at homes or at a local campus.

Our next Ignite meet-up will be November 8, 2026! The doors will open at 5:30. Don’t miss it!


Abigail is married to her amazing husband. She loves being outdoors - whether that’s hiking, going for a run, or relaxing at the beach with a good book - and she’s always up for a good latte at a fun coffee shop! She spent several summers serving at Woodlands Camp (where she met Andrew!), and several years leading and serving in student ministry at her church in Florida. Born and raised in Florida, Indiana has become a really special place to her, and she loves getting to help students come to Christ and grow in Christ!!!

Small Groups

Strong connections. Honest conversations. Groups are 10-14 students meeting weekly with adult leaders, diving deeply into God's Word, and establishing real relationships - with Jesus and with one another.

Small groups are the engine that drives spiritual formation. Students develop authentic, influential and healthy bonds with their peers and adult leaders, asking honest questions and building faith in the One who has the answers!
