We Think Students Are Amazing!

Far too often, students are overlooked or just tolerated during some of life’s trickiest years. Not here! At Lake Hills, we go all out to ensure students feel genuinely welcomed, seen, and encouraged to grow into the amazing young people God created them to be.

We’re confident that you, like so many others, will love being part of Lake Hills Students!

Here’s what your student can expect:

  • Connection: A chance to make lasting friendships with peers.

  • Fun: Engaging activities and games that keep them coming back.

  • Faith: Relevant Bible teaching that applies to everyday life.

A SPACE DESIGNED FOR STUDENTS

Our dedicated Student Building is a welcoming environment created with your student in mind.

Here’s what makes it special:

  • Food & Fun:

    • Sundays: Snacks for middle schoolers.

    • Wednesdays: Dinner for high schoolers.

  • Pre-Service Games:

    • High-energy activities for competitive students.

BUILDING FRIENDSHIPS THAT LAST!

  • Grade-Based Groups: Students are paired with others in their grade, making it easy to relate and form friendships.

  • Friendly Competition: Groups work and play together during service, fostering a sense of team and belonging.

  • Quick Connections: Many students who come in alone leave with lifelong friends in just a service or two.

Coming solo? No problem! Our small group leaders are experts at helping students feel connected right away.

STRONG. WISE. FREE.

We want every student to live out our mantra: to become strong, wise, and free.

  • Strength: Stand firm in what’s right.

  • Wisdom: Make thoughtful, God-honoring choices.

  • Freedom: Live as the person God created them to be.

Every message is centered on the Bible and designed to motivate students to experience the Good News of Jesus. It’s a journey of personal growth and spiritual transformation.

LEADERS OF TODAY, NOT JUST TOMORROW.

At Lake Hills, we believe students can make a difference right now—not just someday.

  • Mentorship Opportunities:

    • Every student has a mentor to guide them.

    • Students are encouraged to mentor younger kids in return.

  • Serving in Ministry:

    • Students lead in kids' classrooms as small group leaders, stage hosts, and song leaders.

    • Many care for nursery and preschool kids during services.

Nothing builds faith and leadership skills quite like investing in others. We’d LOVE for your student to join our student volunteer team!

We can’t wait to head to camp this year with our incoming middle school students for a week at Lakeview Camp & Retreat Center, led by the LHC Students team. It’s going to be an incredible experience packed with activities, engaging services, and teaching from the Bible. This will serve as a well-needed reset before the school year begins. Our middle school students will have a camp uniquely designed for them and the challenges and opportunities that middle school presents.

We have planned 5 days full of activities that include: lake zip-line and trapeze, water slides, theme night parties, team competitions, pool time, and so much more! Whether you're seeking thrilling adventures or a laid-back experience, there's something for everyone to enjoy. We would love for your middle school student to join us!

Tribe

WHO: 9th Graders through Graduating Seniors
WHEN: June 22nd-28th
WHERE: Breckenridge, CO

We're excited to head back to Breckenridge, CO for TRIBE 2025! It’s going to be an incredible experience packed with activities and engaging services. Each day will be anchored by an amazing activity like white-water rafting, ziplining, mountain-side adventure park, day hiking, and exploring Breckenridge. There will be plenty to do for both the highly adventurous and those that prefer to take it easy and take it all in!

While in Breckenridge, we'll be taking advantage of all the fun the mountains have to offer, and students will get to share experiences that they will remember for a lifetime! But the most impactful part of TRIBE is what happens when we pause the recreation and focus on God together. At TRIBE, your student will get to engage in teaching from the Bible, impactful services,  and small group conversations. The leader your student will be paired with will be their guide not just for a week of fun, but for a week of realignment to the Good News of Jesus. We would love for your high school student to join us!
