student ministries

We love students!  Our desire is to disciple students to love and serve God passionately as they impact their world for Christ!


All students in grade 6-12 are always welcome at LIGHT!


During the school year, we meet Sunday nights at First Free, 1407 Kate Shelley Dr. in Boone, for our regular youth group, and lots of other times for discipleship and fun hang outs.
