Substance Youth Parent Update July 2024

Hello Substance Youth Parents! We're so excited to update you on what is happening in Substance Youth!

Serve Day

On Saturday, July 13th Substance will be joining churches all across the country for Serve Day as we participate in projects that help and care for our local communities! There will be teams cleaning up our parks and streets, working on landscaping projects, packing and distributing food, and more. We would love to invite you and your family to join us in serving on this day!

July 24th Rival Night at Westside Campus!

On Wednesday, July 24th we will only be at our Westside Campus at Maple Grove High School! We will take over the fields right next to the high school for Rival Night!

Rival Nights

Rival Nights is our summer-long competition where we split the entire ministry into two teams to see who will become the Substance Youth 2024 Rival Champions! Students will compete in large group games and can earn points for their team by memorizing Bible verses, serving on a Sunday, and bringing their friends!

The 2nd and 4th Wednesdays in June and July will be Rival Nights! Students can show up on a Wednesday with their friends to find out what team they are on. Doors open at 6:30pm and we kick things off at 7:00pm!

Remix Services

On the third Wednesday of June and July we will have our Youth Remix Service! On these nights we have students take the lead! We have a time of worship led by our youth band and devotionals from students!

In June we will have Remix Service outside with acoustic worship for the night! Doors open at 6:30pm and service begins at 7:00pm!

Small Groups

We currently have two small groups for students this trimester and you can sign your student up for either group in our small group guide!

Thursday Night Tabletop Gaming

Every other Thursday night at northtown we have a tabletop gaming group for students in 7th-12th grade!

Westside Sunday Morning Connect Group

We also have a group on Sunday mornings at our Westside campus for students to connect and meet other students at the campus!

Sunday Services

One of our goals is to have every student love our Sunday services!

We'd love to have you join one of our amazing campuses around the metro area! We have a campus at Northtown, Downtown, and Westside. At every campus, there are Youth staff or volunteers that would love to help connect you and your student to Substance Youth! Stop by the 7 Minute Party after each service and we'd love to help you get connected.

It's all about 4-7 Friends and Ownership in a Ministry!

Youth Serving

There's nothing better than serving with friends! Every week at all of our campuses we have places for students to find ownership here at Substance. From the coffee team, greeting team, to the kids ministry there are plenty of opportunities for students to jump in at Substance Church!

Wednesday Serve Teams

We would love to invite you to serve on a support team on a Wednesday night! We are looking for people who can help serve on teams such as check-in, parking, greeting, and prayer to help make Substance Youth a great experience for students and families!
