FAQ'S for Parents

What is the best way for my student to get connected at Vertical?
Everything from our services, events, and small groups is designed for your student to get connected. Every Wednesdaywe have a service with hang out time before and after. Every Sunday night we will have small groups to give every student an opportunity to connect with other students and leaders. When a student shows up at Vertical it’s hard NOT to get connected.

What happens at Vertical on Wednesday night?
Every Wednesday the Student Life Center opens its doors at 5:30 pm. Before the worship service starts we have everything from video game stations, games in the gym and indoor soccer field to fellowship in the café, and much more going on. At 7:15 pm the service starts. Students get time to meet each other, connect with their small group, worship God, and hear from the Word of God on an issue relevant to the culture they live in. Service ends at 8:30 pm.

How can I stay up-to-date on everything at Vertical?
The best way to stay up on everything going on at Vertical is to sign up for the parent e-mails. You will receive all the information you need on a consistent basis. Another way to find out information is to check the Sunday morning bulletin.  You can also find the things you need for small groups, events, etc. at the information center in the Student Life Center building and you can always give us a call at the office, 531-2100.
