Welcome to Shadow Youth High School!
Shadow Youth High School Ministry is for students in 9th-12th grade. Our mission is to make disciples by partnering with parents to build up the next generation of leaders who seek, serve, and share Christ. We accomplish this mission through small groups, ministry events, student leadership, camps, activities, and more. We want your student to be connected and growing in their faith.
Join us for fellowship, worship, and a message on Sunday mornings at 9:00 am in the High School Ministry Room. Please note we only have ONE Sunday morning service for high school students. We have a reserved section in the Worship Center for any students who want to sit with us. Students are also welcome to sit with their families.
Small groups are designed to provide a welcoming, safe, and Christ-centered environment for young people to seek Biblical answers, receive prayer support, connect with fellow believers, and have the chance to develop a personal relationship with Christ.

YTH SRV is our unique opportunity for students to use their gifts, talents, and abilities to serve in ministry.

If you love being friendly and talking to people, this team is for you! F.I.T. is our "welcome" team that helps make Shadow Youth a warm, friendly environment. We seek out new students and help them feel welcome. You will help with check-in, signs-ups, giving directions, and prepping and decorating for events.
If you like to help with lights, sound, stage design, and tech of any kind, this team is for you! We get to run the soundboard, light board, computers, and setup the stage.
For those who love to use their musical gifts to praise God, we invite you to audition for the Worship Team! You get to serve by helping lead worship - playing instruments and/or singing along with the band. You will attend worship band practices and get to learn from experienced worship leaders. An audition is required before joining this team.
Baptism is the first step of obedience in the life of a Christian (Matt. 28:18 – 20). It is also a way for Christians to be publicly identified with Christ in his death, burial, and resurrection (Rom. 6:3 – 4). Baptism does not bring salvation (Eph. 2:8 – 9), but symbolizes our new life, much like a wedding ring symbolizes ones marital status. You may have a lot of questions and we are here to help you along the way.
Baptism ceremonies are done differently all over the world (just like weddings and other ceremonies). Here is how we do it at Shadow Mountain:
