Below you’ll find a list of upcoming events for Lifeline!
Snow Camp is our biggest event! It’s a weekend away at SpringHill Camps in Evart, MI. Small groups have a bunch of time to spend together, lots of camp activities to enjoy, teaching, games, music, and more. Space is limited so be sure to sign up early once registration opens.
All of High School Lifeline is gathering together at the East Paris campus for our annual Christmas dinner! We hangout in our small groups, sit at a very long table that has some serious Christmas feast vibes, sing some Christmas carols and hear a quick teaching from Luke. This is a super fun night and we hope to see everyone there!
Lifeline, our student ministry program, is welcoming parents to join us for Parent Night! This will be a fun opportunity for parents to experience what a typical night at Lifeline is, meet their student's small group leader, and hear from the Lifeline staff regarding how Lifeline is here to partner with you.
We have an opportunity beyond Lifeline nights for you to get connected! Our short term group is starting soon, and this is a quote from one of the people in the video, “Being a follower of Jesus - being a Christian - isn't only about what you believe or agreeing with certain ideas, ultimately it's about growing in relationship with Jesus, and the way we do that is to be with Him and do what He says.” This is a great group for you if you are trying to connect what you believe to how to live that out!
The High School Retreat is for students who are looking for some time away with Lifeline to worship, learn, and grow closer to God. While there will be plenty of free time and fun with the HS Lifeline community, this retreat is a deeper dive towards intentional growth for HS Students.
Serve GR is a local serving opportunity for middle and high school students. Students will have the opportunity to go to different non profit organizations in the area to learn about what they do and who they help in our very own city and get a chance to help that organization. Students will get to experience the dorm life by staying overnight at Calvin University! This trip is a lot of fun, but a lot of work as well, and provides experiences for students to serve our city through word and deed.
This is an international mission trip to Belize. While working with a mission's organization called Praying Pelican, students will have the opportunity to return to a local area that we have serve with in previous summers. This trip exists to help raise awareness of the local church in specific areas in Belize. We do this by running a Vacation Bible School (VBS) at a local church, and invite locals to attend. This trip is for high school students only and is run primarily by students.
Join Lifeline Staff and other students in a supportive community dedicated to helping you create healthier habits. Whether you're seeking guidance, understanding, or simply a safe space to share your experiences, this group offers compassionate support for those striving to overcome challenges related to adult content consumption. Let's navigate this journey together.
These groups will let you know that you are not alone. You will hear stories and obtain tools to help you where you struggle. We will meet for three weeks and intend to help you find additional accountability and support. Men and women will be divided into separate groups and will meet at different times.
Baptism is an outward expression of an inward change that has taken place in our lives after we have placed our faith and trust in Christ. Lowering into the water symbolizes dying to your old life without God. You are then raised to a new life living like Jesus. Although different church traditions practice baptism in different ways, baptism has been practiced since the time of Jesus

This short-term group invites middle school students to dive deeper into a specific topic outside of a Lifeline night! This short-term group will be focused on the Practice of Prayer. Students will be led by Lifeline staff through a 3-week course on the practice of prayer, hear what the Bible says, why we are called to pray, what to pray for, and why God invites us to communicate with him. All campuses will be invited to join and then will be put together with students from their campus.
