Impact is NorthRidge’s 6-12th grade youth program where students are given opportunities to actively grow in their relationship with God, love each other, and serve others within their homes and community. Impact strives for students to find their happiness in God by learning and living according to His word and having a passion for the things that God is passionate about. Every aspect of the youth ministry reflects fun, faith, and friendship. See below to read more about our Impact Youth Ministry.

Students 6th-12th grade are invited to join us each Wednesday night at NorthRidge for youth group. Invite a friend and join us as we see Jesus and become more like him! We'll have games, worship, small group, and prayer together! For online options, watch the latest lesson from Pastor Brax.

Wednesday Fun Fusion Nights

Students will start their time together with worship, and then the small groups will play board games, card games, hang out and chat, or whatever they decide to do as a small group! This is a night where the youth decide what kind of fun they want to have!
