30th Annual Back to School Bash

"IT'S YOUR MOMENT" is the theme for 2026! 

This year's theme is a call for students to recognize that they are not placed in this season by accident. God has intentionally positioned each teen in their school, family, job, friendships, online spaces, and community for such a time as this.

This Back to School Bash will challenge students to stop waiting for the “perfect moment” and start living with purpose right now. 

It invites them to see everyday environments — classrooms, locker rooms, group chats, social media feeds, dinner tables, and workplaces—as moments God can use to shape their character, strengthen their faith, and impact others.

Our vision is to raise up students who:
Understand who they are in Christ
Recognize where God has placed them
Choose courage over comfort
Step into influence with humility, boldness, and obedience

This isn’t about pressure to be perfect—it’s about willingness to be faithful in the moments God has already given.
It will be an aim to give teens encouragement to find God's voice amongst the many "voices" or influences that are in our lives.

We are excited to have Wes Baldwin for this year's Back to School Bash speaker!

The "Bash" will be August 8, 2026!
We would love to have your church youth come and join in with this fun event!
