The Student & Young Adult Ministries at New Mercies Christian Church are dedicated to connecting students—from elementary to high school—to Christ, equipping them to serve, lead, and grow in their faith.

The LINK - Student Ministries

The Link is Student Ministries here at New Mercies Christian Church which serves students from Elementary-Age to High School-Age. Our main goal in The Link is to connect students to Christ and equip them to serve and lead in a way that will draw others to Christ in a forever-changing world. We achieve this through our engagements and connections with our students who are members of our church as well as students in our surrounding community.

We meet with our students every 2nd, and 3rd Sunday for our 8am and 10:30am worship services. Outside of our worship services, we create opportunities to introduce Christ to students inside and outside of our building and to help them begin and nurture their relationship with Him.

We want this ministry to be a part of your student’s family and not an option. We know that we are not only molding and shaping believers in Christ, but also better people. We are also always looking for adults who want to serve as leaders in Students Ministries. It’s a place for people who have a heart to help lead young people to Christ and to be the best version of themselves.

I look forward to serving your students and serving with new leaders as we continue to connect students to Christ! God bless you and I love you all!

The Link’s “Planting Our Feet” initiative is all about our mission and goal to connect students to Christ who are outside the four walls of our church. This is about our partnership with the schools in our community. We have planted our feet in the Parkview High and Shiloh High Clusters.

Through Planting Our Feet we engage the elementary, middle, and high schools in these clusters in a way to develop a relationship with the students and faculty. It is our goal to ensure that they know that we are a resource for them in ways outside of our worship services on Sunday.

Part of Planting Our Feet is having a regular connection with the students in these clusters. For the Elementary Schools, we offer our “Warm Welcome”. This is where volunteers from our church show up to greet students in the morning with great energy and love. For the Middle Schools, it’s “Frequent Flyers”. This is where we meet with students who may have academic and/or behavioral challenges to help encourage them to be and do better. For the High Schools, it’s “What Did He Say”. This is an opportunity where we meet students in the lunch room and they have the opportunity to ask any questions about their faith, or life, and leave a prayer request. It’s all about Planting Our Feet and connecting these students to Christ and assisting them in being the best version of themselves!
