Sunday Classes
9:50 AM - 10:50 AM
On Sunday mornings you will find the student wing busy with activity. From 9:50-10:50am we offer Sunday morning classes for our students. We offer four different classes which are divided by grades: 6th (Confirmation Class), 7th, 8th-9th, and 10th-12th. If you are new to Concord United, Sunday mornings are a great time to visit the Student area upstairs, get a tour, and meet our Student Ministries staff.

SUNDAY NIGHT
AMPLIFIED 2.0
6:00 PM - 7:30 PM
Sunday nights, known as “Amplified 2.0,” are our main night for students during the school year. At 6:00pm we gather upstairs in the Student wing in The Studio. We play games, dance, and just hang-out, before we settle into a time of worship from 6:30 – 7:30pm which is led by our Student Ministries band and Student Ministries staff.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT
3:30 PM - 6:00 PM Hang-Out in Common Grounds
6:00 PM Life Groups
Every Wednesday during the school year, from 3:30 – 6:00pm, our coffee house, “Common Grounds,” is open to students to work on homework, relax after a hard day, enjoy a cup of coffee or hot chocolate, or just hang out with friends. At 6:00pm we break out into Life Groups, which are exactly what they sound like. In Life Groups, students are simply encouraged to be in “Life” with other students and adult leaders within our community.

MISSIONS
VOLUNTEER FIELD WORK
2ND THURSDAY, 3:15 - 6:30 PM
Student Ministries is an active participant in the mission work of Concord United. In addition to international mission trips, we also take a week-long domestic mission trip each summer to help a community in need. We regularly participate in community mission work, and serve our famous meatball subs at the Volunteer Ministry Center on the second Thursday of each month. The Church bus picks up our volunteers after school, and they return to the Church around 6:30pm. We hope you will join us as we feed and serve the Knoxville community!
