Waters Edge Students exist to change the way Students think about church!

We want to help students know Jesus, connect with their Student Leader and other Students their age in life-giving community, discover their purpose, and make a difference.

Visit our Instagram or Facebook page.

Join us for an epic night just for students! Get ready for incredible worship, an inspiring message from our special guest, Pastor Edwin Jones, and a legendary afterparty you won’t want to miss!

At Student Conference, we’re diving into Colossians 3:1-17, which reminds us to focus on things above. Life can throw a lot our way—pressure, distractions, stress, and drama. But when we zero in on what really matters, we’ll walk away feeling confident, on fire, and ready to tackle anything. We’re all about living with purpose and peace, powered by God. Let’s make it epic!

And don’t miss the afterparty! It’s going to be packed with fun: slide, bingo, karaoke, snacks, drinks, and so much more!

Each week, our Students get together in small groups led by a Student Group Leader. Groups are split up by grade and gender. While Students experience life-giving community, they discuss Sunday’s message and learn how to apply God’s Word to their lives.

Doors open at 7:00 PM for Students to hang out in the lobby with their friends and play games. At 7:30 PM Students are dismissed to their small group.

Student Camp is for students who are currently in grades 6th-12th. It is a five day experience that features ziplines, Adventure Course, giant swing, beach volleyball, rock wall and more! We’ll stay in cabins, play amazing games and tournaments, and enjoy daily sessions that include great speakers and worship leaders.

Registrations and details about Student Camp 2025 will be released January 2025.

We live for Sundays!! We love it when Students attend service on Sundays. It helps them engage more with their Wednesday Night curriculum and plays a crucial role in helping them grow in their faith.

We encourage all Students to sit in the front row, middle section at each of our campuses. Students set the tone for worship and engaging in the message each week.

Our students love volunteering each week, whether it's with kids, production, or guest experience. At WEC, we believe this is a great way for them to discover their purpose.

We encourage all Students to attend a service and volunteer a service. It’s so easy to get engaged. Check out your options!
