We are a fun place for high school and middle school students (6th - 12th graders)
who want to know & love God more and to ELEVATE His name for all our friends to see!

 We play fun games...  We sing great songs...
We watch cool videos...  We learn stuff from the Bible...

We meet on Wednesday nights at 7:00pm in the lower level of Morningside Community Church.

Want to invite your friends to

but not sure how?

 

Why not start by sending a cool e-vite...and then asking them (in person, on Facebook, via texting)
if they got it and if they want to come with you to Elevate the next time we meet?

These e-vites are FREE!
So, send as many as you want to all your friends!

Here's another idea: Why not invite that kid at school that nobody talks to?
You know the one...they sit by themselves at lunchtime...
people are usually either teasing them,
making fun of them or just ignoring them!
Why not try being a friend to them, too! Invite them to Elevate!

You never know...they may just become the best friend you've ever had!!!

 

To send an e-vite, just follow these simple steps:

      1.  "Right-click" on one of the e-vites below.
                  (that means click with the Right button on your mouse, instead of the left one)
      2.  When the little window pops up, select "Copy" or "Copy Image".
                  (depending on what type of computer and internet browser you are using)
      3.  Open a new email and "Right-click" again in the empty space of the main body of your email
                  (the big blank area where you normally type your message)
      4.  This time, when the little pop-up window opens, select "Paste"
                   ...and now the e-vite picture is in your email!
      5.  Go ahead and write a note to your friend(s) if you want.
                  (Don't forget to put in his/her/their email address(es) and a "subject" in the Subject line.)
      6.  Hit send!  You're done!

To Save a Life
High School senior, Jake Taylor, seems to have it all: popularity, basketball scholarship to his favorite college and a beautiful girlfriend.  But his whole world changes when a childhood friend commits suicide in the middle of the school.  Suddenly, Jake begans to make some serious decisions about life and his relationships.  Could he have done something different to save his friend?  Are there others that are hurting the way his friend did...and can he help them before it's too late?
