JOLT, Jesus Openly Loves Teens, is where faith comes alive. We believe every student matters, every question is welcome, and every life has purpose. Our ministry is designed to help middle and high school students connect with God, build authentic friendships, and grow into the men and women He created them to be. From weekly gatherings and Bible studies to camps, mission opportunities, and fun events, JOLT is a place to belong, be encouraged, and be challenged to follow Christ every day.
A Week That Can Shape A Lifetime
After months of planning and preparation, camp week is finally passed. The anticipation was building for weeks, and our youth and leaders had an amazing time at Charleston Southern for SummerSalt Youth Camp. Conversations have turned into reality, excitement from the week's activities is still going, and they are on fire more than ever before.
​
This year’s theme, "The Chase," from the Song of Solomon, has helped our students discover the incredible truth that God faithfully pursues a relationship with his people. Throughout the week they were challenged to seek Christ first, they grew deeper in their faith, and learned what it looks like to follow him wholeheartedly in their everyday lives.
​
Take a look below to see all that God did in the lives of our youth during this special week.

Overwhelming Encouragement
​
Thank you to all of our amazing church family that has sent cards and notes to our youth at camp! We got them and will be handing them out throughout the week to lift their spirits and remind them that they are being prayed for by so many!
Down Time
A room full of girls, a little bit of chaos, a whole lot of laughter... sounds like camp is off to a great start!
Beach Break!!
Between sessions and activities, the beach offered a chance to laugh, relax, and soak up a beautiful afternoon together.
Quiet Mornings in Prayer
The first voices of the morning weren't filled with excitement or competition, but with prayer. What a beautiful way to begin each day! What a vision to see so many youth in the presence of God!
Moments that Matter
There are moments that are hard to put into words. Hundreds of voices lifted together in worship each night was one of them. It's more than singing. It's seeing students genuinely engage with God in a way that will stay with them long after camp is over.
​
Skits brought laughter through creative skits that entertained, encouraged, and pointed students back to the night's message. They reminded us that joy and truth often go hand in hand.
​
Then came the games. From team competitions to unforgettable activities, every day was filled with excitement. The laughter was contagious, the energy never seemed to run out, and friendships grew stronger with every shared adventure.
