Discipleship Communities (DCOMMs) are gender- and age-specific small groups that meet weekly across Austin. Led by two or more thoroughly vetted leaders, these smaller groups of students dive deeper into God’s Word, confess and work through sin struggles, and are encouraged to live their lives in accordance with the gospel. DCOMMs are a place where students can be deeply known and cared for by their peers and leaders.

Throughout the year, we host a number of church-wide retreats and events for students to connect with each other, escape from distractions at home or school, and focus on Jesus! These include Students City Limits, Students Camp, Citywide Worship, ATX Student Weekend, Girls Gathering, and more!
Do you have a desire to develop relationships with and teach students about the goodness of Jesus? We’re looking for godly men and women to invest their time into discipling our middle school and high school students!

Students in 5th, 6th, or 7th grade meet on Sundays during the 11am service in the iLab inside the Austin High Library for a time of games, donuts, and discussion-based lessons! Students will learn how to read God's Word on their own using the REAP method.
On Sunday mornings, we encourage students in 8th-12th grade to spend time with their church family! This can look like worshiping alongside their parents or friends during church service, sitting under the teaching of elders, or serving in other ministries (like 5/6/7). We hope this empowers students to love the local church! We also have regular social events throughout the semester for 8th-12th grade students.
For 6th-12th grade students, we have smaller discipleship groups that meet throughout the week and are led by Students Ministry leaders! These groups provide a space for students to build deep friendships and a foundation of faith as they learn more about Jesus.
For more information on the Students Ministry at our Downtown Campus, contact Hannah Penley.
