    • Sunday Mornings at 9:15 a.m. (Meet upstairs in the Student Ministry space)
    • Gender-specific and age-specific groups (e.g. high school girls, high school boys, jr high girls, and jr high boys). 
    • Wednesday nights from 6-8 p.m. Larger group setting with games, worship, and Bible teaching. 
    • Second Students are encouraged to take an active role in their spiritual growth through personal Bible study and discipleship. These are small groups in which students walk through life with another person ahead of them in their spiritual growth. Through conversations about mutual devotions and life, disciples and students grow closer together, forge a deeper more meaningful community, and provide each other with accountability. 
    • These events are geared to connect and bond students closer together, while also growing students in their walks with the Lord. These can be summer camp, Sunday night Bible studies, Xtreme Winter Conference in Gatlinburg, TN, fall retreat, or spring DNow weekends, and there are so many more fun opportunities!  
    • The great commission calls us to "Go and make disciples." As part of Second Students, we take that calling seriously, so we look to serve both here in Marion, in our state and country, and around the world. With exciting service opportunities throughout the year including a yearly mission trip, alternating between domestic and international partners, service is in our lifeblood as we seek to take the gospel to the ends of the Earth.
