Hey parents,

Here's what's going on this month in Vista Students!

Be sure to mark your calendars for our big Spring and Summer events! 

  • Vista Students Weekend Event: February 27 - March 1, 2026

  • Student Summer Camp: May 29 - June 1, 2026 @ Camp Eagle

* More details to come soon on both these events!

SUNDAYS

Middle School Students are encouraged to join us for Refuge in the Student Room! It’s during the 8:45am service and it’ll be an hour of games, encouragement, and quality time with other middle schoolers in the ministry. If you’re new to Vista Students, this is the place to be!

Grow Group is open to high school students on Sunday mornings during the 10:15am service in the Student Room. It is a great time to meet other high school students as we play some group games and have a conversation about faith through the study of Scripture.

OUR SERIES THIS MONTH

It’s totally normal to have questions about God and the Bible, even if you've been going to church your whole life. This 4-week series based on the book of John shows how Jesus listened to people’s doubts and met them where they were. It reminds us that asking questions can actually grow our faith, not ruin it. Even when we don’t have all the answers, we can still trust who God is and know He’s not done with our story.

STUDENT SMALL GROUPS

Wednesday Nights @ Vista
Middle School: 6:00-7:00pm
High School: 7:30-8:30pm

They happen every week, but the relationships built in Small Groups extend outside the walls of our church. They’re designed to connect every student with consistent, trustworthy adult leaders and a community of their peers.

Small Groups are the most important part of what we do. They are a time for students to have real conversations about life and faith with the goal of growing closer to God and each other. 

UPCOMING STUDENT EVENTS

Dress Up Sunday is October 26th! In Vista Students and Vista Kids, students are invited to wear their halloween costume if they have one. We want to have fun, so no scary or revealing costumes please!
