For Parents


Youth Safety

We always provide an environment where student's safety is a top priority. Both physical safety, but also a space where they feel emotionally and spiritually safe. We have students check-in, assume it's their first experience with church and create areas where students want to "hangout".

Youth Community

Everything we do in SHS points back to students having an environment where students can be known. We do this by knowing their names, finding common ground with students and genuinely get to know, and introducing them to one another.

Gospel Teaching for Youth

If SHS is a safe place where students can be “real” and find community - then we have the privilege to share the hope of Jesus Christ with students. We do this by centering our conversations around Jesus, walk through the Gospel with real life stories of it showing up in our lives, and talking about real issues through the lens of God's love, the truth of His word, and the hope He offers.


Get to know the pastor

Our Student Pastor Alec Alvarado is married to his beautiful wife Christina and dog owner of Slater. He's been at our Costa Mesa campus for one year and loves the families that are in our SHS Ministry. When he's not at church preaching or destroying students in ping pong, he's running, surfing or drinking coffee. He would love the opportunity to meet you and your student on a Wednesday night or Sunday morning. Schedule a visit below!
