High School

High School Ministry at Triumphant Love is not only focused on relationships, but also on discovery and purpose. We focus on building strong relationships and exploring our faith deeply all while equipping us to be leaders in the community. We offer several programs, service opportunities, and a “big summer trip”. We also have summer employment opportunities for our High School students through our day camp. All with the purpose of helping our high schoolers discover themselves and deepen their faith. We also offer classes for parents to help our families thrive in this short, but significant phase of life.

Our High School Ministry program offers many events and activities throughout the year. To see dates and times for events and activities, visit our calendar and event registration page. If you would like to learn more about the High School Ministry fill out a Connections Card.
