Altitude is our weekly environment that gives 7th and 8th grade students their own place to explore and grow in their relationship with God and others. Every Tuesday at 6:30pm, students will experience games, great worship music, hear a message designed specific to their age and connect in a small group with the same leader and students each week.

At Grace, we believe that life is not meant to be lived alone and relationships are formed in circles, not rows. We also believe that small groups are the glue that hold everything together and as we grow larger, we should grow smaller.

In small groups, students will be able to connect with a consistent, caring leader and the same community of friends each week, as well as be able to grow together and share life together.  

SEPTEMBER 2-23 | CLOSE FRIENDS

All friendships can be complicated, but close friendships? They can be totally and completely complicated! Still, many students place a high value on friendships. That’s why, in this three-week traditional and one-week experience series, we’re helping students unpack the ins and outs of close friendships in healthy, helpful ways. Whether it’s being a friend, finding friends, or navigating tough friendship changes, our prayer is that this series will help students be better, stronger, and closer friends!
