Thrive
Thrive youth group is a ministry that is run by the youth for the youth and that stimulates exploration of Christian concepts in everyday life. Thrive centralizes around Hot Topics, drawing discussions, activities and guest speakers around topics that are engaging and relevant to teenage life, all in the context of food, fun, and fellowship. Thrive Senior High meets Sunday nights between 5 and 7 in Christian Education rooms 6 & 7 in session parallel with the school calendar. THRIVE Junior High meets once a month, usually every fourth Saturday, for special events.

Youth Council
Thrive ministry is made possible by the leadership and planning of the youth themselves by a group known as the Youth Council. The Youth Council offers up high school students leadership experience and adult mentoring in a nurturing Christian environment, stimulating the dynamic and engaging youth ministry present at St. Martins.
For more information contact C.J. Winger.
Big Questions, a multimedia curriculum designed specifically for teens, is offered for our Junior and Senior High School students. Teens participate in animated discussion centered on themes from the Sunday cycle of readings (Revised Common Lectionary) that parallel themes in their daily lives, giving them a chance to explore how they react to and live out their faith in a secular world. Multimedia meditations, audio and video clips, and print media help to stimulate discussion. Sundays @ 10:15.
