Why Local Exists
Local exists to see all middle school and high school students move toward a life transforming relationship with Jesus that lasts into adulthood.
In a caring and authentic community, students will care less about what others believe (about their identity, belonging, and purpose) and more about what Jesus dreams for them. The Jesus who is always with them, always wants the best for them, and loves them no matter what.
Local Hi-Five: (What to prepare for when you come)
Encounter Jesus. Learn. Be Kind. Be Known. Have Fun.
