Vineyard Students

A place where you can actually be yourself.
Who We Are

You don't have to have it all together to show up here. Vineyard Students is a community of middle and high schoolers learning to follow Jesus together — through worship, Scripture, and the kind of friendships that actually last.

Sundays

The Student Union is located just west of our main building, attached to The Healing Center.

11345 Century Circle W, Springdale, OH 45246.

Show up early — doors open at 11am and there's plenty to do before service starts at 11:30. Basketball, gaga ball, a café, a turf arena, and more.

Inside, middle school (grades 6–8) and high school (grades 9–12) each have their own auditorium — separate spaces designed for students to go deep in their faith. Middle school includes small group time built right into the service.

Wednesday Groups (grades 9–12)

Wednesday nights are where community gets built. Every week during the school year, high school students (grades 9–12) show up to the Student Union with the option to grab dinner for $5.


In small groups, students can honestly share what's going on in their lives with peers and adults, ask questions about life and faith, and encourage one another through prayer and support.

Serve In Students

Serving in Student Ministry isn't just about what you bring — it's about who you're becoming alongside students.


If you have a heart for this and gifts in media, worship, or discipleship, let's talk.

What to Know Before You Come

Vineyard Students is for middle and high school students (grades 6–12).


Our goal is to help students grow in faith, build friendships, and discover the life Jesus invites them into.

Every Sunday at 11:30am (Doors open at 11) at the Student Union, we gather middle and high school students for worship, gospel-centered teaching, and community. Middle school (grades 6–8) runs as its own service with small group time included. 


Wednesday nights are smaller and more intentional for grades 9-12. Doors open at 6:30pm with dinner for $5, then students break into small groups. Expect honest conversation, questions about life and faith, prayer, and some fun mixed in. It runs until 8:30pm.

That’s completely normal. Many students come for the first time without knowing anyone.


Our leaders help new students get connected and introduce them to others their age so they can feel at home quickly.

Yes. Creating a safe and healthy space for students matters deeply to us.


All leaders are trained and background-checked, and students are cared for by trusted adults who take their role seriously.

Absolutely. Vineyard Students is a place where teenagers can explore faith, ask honest questions, and learn who Jesus is.


You don’t have to have everything figured out to belong here.

We send a regular parent update so you always know what we’re teaching and what’s coming up.
