KIDS
Birth – 5th Grade
Guiding our children to become disciples of Jesus Christ as they get to know Him in a deeper and more vibrant relationship by growing and going.
Surge
6th – 8th Grade
Middle School is a time of newfound freedom and exploration for students as they begin to independently discover more and more about themselves and the world they interact with daily. Surge is a place for middle school students to discover a faith that leads to abundant freedom in Christ while connecting with other students in fun, authentic community. We meet on Wednesdays at 6:30 in the NGHS Chorus Room, for games, worship, and small-group teaching. Doors open at 6:00 for students to come hang out and eat together before the night gets started. Come see what SURGE is all about on Wednesday.
ALTÆR
9th – 12th Grade
ALTÆR is a high school community expression of what it means to live as family on mission in God’s kingdom. High school is a big place, yet without a community of love and acceptance it can be lonely and isolating. ALTÆR exists to glorify Jesus by providing genuine belonging and community for anyone searching for a place to call home and people to call family, as we live on mission to shine light in a dark world. It doesn’t matter who you are, or where you’ve been – you have a seat at the table and a story worth unfolding here. Come see us on a Thursday night at the NGHS Chorus Room! We meet at 6:30 to play games, worship, and hear God’s word and we always grab a bite to eat together afterwards. We’d love to meet you!

LIFT
Congregation Care
Sometimes life gets hard and we need some help. We need someone to care, show up, and help relieve some of our stress in practical ways. We need you to know you are not alone. Here at RISING, we have dedicated teams committed to helping and supporting those in need through our Prayer, LIFT, and Benevolence ministries. If you are in need, we are here for you.
RISING Women
Uniquely Designed for Women
No matter your age, your style, your status, or whether you think you have it all together or not, at RISING we believe that together we are stronger. The Gathering is uniquely designed to bring the women of RISING together to encourage and support each other. We do this through unique and meaningful events to get to know each other better, to celebrate each other, to love one another and to have fun!
RISING Men
Growing up together as Men
As men, we typically think we need to do everything on our own. This doesn’t have to be the case. As men at RISING Church it is our goal to “grow up” together and become the men God asks us to be and the men we want to become. We center our time around events called MAN EVENTS. It’s doing activities as men we’ve always wanted to do, but just needed someone to do it with.
ATHLETICS
Learning to play together
We believe that athletics has a place in bringing people together. At Rising we work to be intergenerational and intentional with the sports we play, which includes, basketball in the winter, soccer in the summer and softball in the fall. We hope to create a first step for someone to come off the field and into our family.
