Life Can Feel Isolating
in This Season
As we get older, it’s easy to feel disconnected. Routines change, family spreads out, and circles grow smaller. But you don’t have to walk through this season alone. Thrive offers community, purpose, and belonging for every step of the journey.
Get StartedDon’t Miss Out on Community
Isolation doesn’t have to define this season. You were made to live in connection with others, surrounded by encouragement and purpose. Thrive gives you a place to belong.
Frequently asked questions
Adult service opportunities: There are multiple different ways to help shape the next generation by serving in BattleCreek Students. If you would like to start a conversation about serving, please fill out an inquiry and one of our campus staff will reach out to you asap! Visit our SERVE PAGE to do this.
Student service opportunities: We encourage our students to find a place where they can discover, and use their gifts to glorify God and serve others. Whether they serve in a kid’s classroom, at a local outreach, or participate in a student mission trip, our students get to participate in the work of the local church. If your student is interested in serving in one of our ministry areas on a Sunday or Wednesday, they can reach out to their campus student pastor for more information.
Partner with us! We believe partnering with parents is the best way to raise a personal faith in the next generation. That’s why we want to partner with you to support your family, provide resources, and answer any questions that you may have. We would love to hear from you! You can send us a direct message on social media or email us at students@battlecreekchurch.com.
Follow us! Connect with us on social media with @battlecreekstudents. Also be sure that your campus student pastor has your information for consistent email/text communication from each of our campuses.
At BattleCreek, safety of our students and kids is a high priority. We want your student to feel safe and have a sense of "home" while on any of our campuses. All student dream team volunteers must have a background check and sign our safety protocol agreement. While your students are a part of any BattleCreek Students weekly program or event (on campus or off), you can rest assured that leaders and dream team volunteers will provide a safe environment where the focus is always advancing in their journey with Christ.
