What Is Elevate?
At theCHURCH AZ, we believe in being the Everyday Church, walking in Everyday Unity, for Every Student. Elevate Youth exists to help your student Know Jesus personally Follow Him faithfully And become fully connected to the Church, not just a youth group Because when a student really knows Jesus and walks in unity with His church, they stay with Jesus for life. What to Expect At Elevate, we go all in. We laugh, worship, connect, and learn. But more than that, we awaken purpose in every student. Our heartbeat echoes the words of our youth theme song: “Wake up child, it’s your time to shine. You were born for such a time as this.” “This is the anthem of our generation. Here we are God, shake our nation.” We believe every teen is royalty, with destiny, and has been set free to shape history not someday, but right now. That’s why we don’t settle for hype without heart. Every Tuesday is packed with worship, truth, connection, and purpose, all driven by the Spirit of God. You're in Good Hands We know trusting others with your student is a big deal, and we don’t take it lightly. At Elevate, your child will be surrounded by an incredible team of adult and student leaders who are passionate, trained, and background-checked. Our goal is to know your student, walk with them through every season, and help them grow into who God created them to be. This is a safe space, rooted in truth and fueled by love.
Our Vision: 2025–2026 “Everyday Church. Everyday Unity. For Every Student.” We aim to: Root identity in Jesus, not pressure or performance Build relational discipleship that goes beyond surface Connect youth to the whole church, not just a room Help students own their faith Create a culture of unity that bridges grades, families, and generations.
