Welcome
We're a community of Middle School and High School students who pursue ALL THINGS in Jesus; we are the Woodland Church Youth, and we’re stoked you’re here.
New Here?
New Here?
We are a family
God designed us to be His Family made in His image. We honor the King by being committed to loving each other, and assuming that others love us!
We expect fruit
We equip the saints expecting to see fruit in our lives and others. Following Jesus looks like something: the way we walk and talk is being completely transformed to be more like Jesus.
We all join in the fight
We have an enemy who despises everything that we were created to be. So, we ALL fight — for our families, our friends, and even those who hate us, to see the world set free from slavery to sin and raised to this new life of peace and joy in Christ.
We walk with Jesus.
Come walk with us!
By choosing to walk with Jesus the world no longer gets to tell us who we are, in fact, our identity is no longer ours to define. Jesus paid with his life to have the sole right to tell us who we are.
Jesus paid it all, so now we are:

Read Scripture
We're reading through the Bible in a year!
We're following BibleProject's One-Year Reading Plan. BibleProject is a nonprofit, crowdfunded organization that produces completely free resources that help people experience the Bible in a way that is approachable, engaging, and transformative.
"From page one to the final word, we believe the Bible is a unified story that leads to Jesus."

Youth Leaders
We are richly blessed with an amazing group of Jesus followers to lead our youth group. We are confident that for each of the leaders God has brought us, He intends to produce exponentially more fruit.
Kalister Harmon
Ministry Lead
I am so very thankful to God to get to serve. I love God, people, and the fruit of unity in Christ! Feel free to reach out to me at kalister@woodlandnw.com.
Ilima Harmon
Ministry Lead
I love seeing strangers become acquaintances, acquaintances become friends, and friends become family. My heart is that the youth would be aware of the reality that seemingly small acts of faith are actually ground-shaking in the Spirit!
Hannah Pulse
Leader
Hannah is incredibly talented, passionate about God's word and a truly deep thinker. She knows and applies God's word, and that can be clearly seen and heard in almost every conversation with her.
Josh Flake
Teaching Lead
My heart is to edify the youth to seek all things in Christ. I want them to understand their value in co-laboring with Jesus in ministering to the church and community. Also, I have a strong affinity for fish. I’m a fisherman.
Andrew McClatchey
High School Lead
My heart behind serving is for the youth of today to feel known and loved. To help them to walk in the fullness of their identity and calling in Christ Jesus.
Tania Garrison
Special Event Lead
We are super excited to announce Tania is joining the team!
