Senior high students face real life situations every day: at home, at school, alone, and with friends.
They take on peer pressure and questions of right and wrong. They deal with relationships and identity issues. Through it all, they wonder two things: How do I know what to believe? Who can I trust?
At Nazareth, our Senior High Ministry provides clear direction for students. We teach biblical truths that students can believe in and apply to their own real life situations. We let them know that Jesus has answers to all their questions and solutions to all their problems. Again and again, we share one truth with students: Jesus offers real life.

Special Events
Spring Break Mission Trips
These trips feature a variety of work projects, from serving in soup kitchens in San Francisco to repairing hurricane-damaged homes in New Orleans to praying with strangers on the sidewalks of New York. Destinations also include Mexico and our own Cedar Valley. No matter what the location, the focus of mission trips is always growing stronger in faith and closer to Jesus through serving our neighbors in need.
Caravan
Students take to the open road for a 10-day, mid-summer adventure to Florida, Colorado, or New York City. The trip allows ample time for worship and Bible study AND fun and sightseeing. Adult Christian leaders from several area churches provide both teaching and supervision throughout the trip.
