UYC (Uprising Youth Church) is a youth church; not a youth group, but a church where young people can get personal with God. Our goal is to grow deeper (individually) and wider (corporately) by knowing God and making Him known. We want to bring acceptance, purpose, and opportunity to every young person we come in contact with.

We meet every Wednesday night from 7-9pm. UYC is a great atmosphere for anyone in grades 6th - 12th and consists of a live band playing worship, a customized message about Jesus' desires for this generation, and other people this age excited about God. At UYC, we strive to be a church for this generation!
