Brandywine Students
Brandywine Students is a youth ministry for students to establish Godly friendships, build a strong foundation, and grow in their faith. We have programs and events for both middle school students (grades 6-8) and high school students (grades 9-12). From weekly and monthly events to the retreat, Renew Conference, mission trips and service opportunities, there are plenty of opportunities for students to get involved.

Student Quest

Students in grades 6-12 meet for Student Quest on Sundays in the Gym. We will be filming and posting the video for students unable to attend in person on Instagram (@brandywine_students) and YouTube (YouTube.com/BrandywineStudents).
Middle School Small Groups
WHEN: Wednesdays, 6:30 – 8:00pm, September-May. Kickoff is Wednesday, August 27.
WHO: Grades 6-8
One of the cornerstones of our student ministry program is weekly small group meetings that occur during the school year. Small groups are created based on grade and gender. The evening starts with some fun activities and then moves into group Bible study and prayer. This is a great way for kids to build and strengthen friendships with other Christian kids as well as go deep in the Word.
