Gospel Transforming. Disciple Making. Family Equipping
Sanctus Student Ministry
In Sanctus Student Ministry, we are passionate about creating a safe, engaging, and Christ-centered environment where every child can grow in faith, build friendships, and discover the love of Jesus.
Welcome to Sanctus Student Ministry
Sanctus Youth is a place where students in 6th–12th grade can build friendships, grow in their faith, and discover what it means to follow Jesus in a fun and welcoming environment. Our heart is to see students encounter Jesus, be strengthened by biblical teaching, and make an impact in their schools and communities. Each Wednesday night, students experience engaging Bible-based messages, student-led worship, small groups, and plenty of opportunities to connect with others their age and encourage one another in their faith journey. Sanctus Wednesday evening drop-off begins at 6:15PM. Your student’s safety is also a top priority, which is why every volunteer completes background checks and training while following safety protocols to help create a safe and supportive environment for every youth and peace of mind for parents.
Upcoming Events
Stay On Mission This Summer
Summer missions don’t have to end with RGV. Summer break is a great opportunity to continue living on mission right here in our own community. Whether you serve with Sanctus, your family, or a group of friends, there are plenty of ways to make a difference and share the love of Jesus throughout the summer.
Mission Week
This June, TSF is partnering with Attack Poverty and Friends of North Richmond for Mission Week. Students will have the opportunity to serve through practical projects such as painting office spaces, mulching playground areas, and helping paint a home for a local family. These projects create welcoming spaces, strengthen our community, and open doors to share the hope of Christ.
Serve at VBS
Sanctus students play a vital role in helping make VBS an incredible week for kids. From leading groups and helping with sports activities to building relationships and sharing the love of Jesus, serving at VBS is a fun and impactful way to invest in the next generation.
Feed The Hunger Packathon
Join us as we pack 10,000 meals and 1,400 hygiene kits for people facing food insecurity and poverty around the world. This is a hands-on opportunity for students and families to put gospel compassion into action and help meet real needs for those who need it most.
Serve with 1000 Hills
1000 Hills Volunteers serves individuals experiencing homelessness through practical care, encouragement, prayer, and meaningful relationships. Students, families, and small groups can serve together while demonstrating the compassion of Christ and bringing hope to those who are often overlooked.
This summer, don’t just take a break—take the opportunity to be on mission. God can use your time, gifts, and willingness to serve to make an eternal impact in the lives of others.
