ASC stands for Axis Student Community. It is a community of students ranging from 6th grade to 12th grade at Axis Church. We believe student ministry can be exciting, inspiring, and life-changing. We believe ministry is best done through relationships. We meet at a church family’s home and are a tight-knit group of people that truly care for one another. We have amazing leaders that truly know the students and have genuine involvement in their lives. We also love the Word of God, which is evident in our teaching time and inclusion in Core Groups. We also love to have fun, be weird, and be ourselves. This can be shown in the goofy skits and games that the leaders and high school students lead at every Gathering. Most importantly we are a group that seeks to know and love God and each other every day and every gathering.
Gathering: Our main nights that happen every Wednesday from 7-9 pm at an Axis family's home. They are a loving family with students in the group and love hosting our community. This involves Scripture, personal stories, illustrations, and involvement from the students to truly relate Biblical truth to the students lives and walks with Jesus. Finally we have Core Groups split up by age and gender. Each is led by a leader that is specifically pouring into those students. These are places to discuss student’s lives, the message, God’s Word, and prayer. (Off last Wednesday of the month)
Student Sunday: These are once a month events that happen during Sunday service. At the Mason location, we meet during second service in the Kid City or CrossFit areas. In Middletown, we meet during service in the side building.
Summer: Throughout the summer we have less formal events, twice a month. Camp and mission trips are doing this time. The ASC leaders still stay involved with the students and will have movie nights, Kings Island days, and other times to keep Axis Student Community going throughout the summer.
Fall Retreat: We have a weekend Fall Retreat from Saturday morning to Sunday afternoon at Camp Lebanon. It is geared towards having a time for our student community to have a chance to retreat from everyday life and have a weekend of fun and fellowship with other students following Jesus. There is gaga ball, ziplining, hiking, basketball, biblical teaching, Core Group times, devotional times, campfires, and awesome night games.
Winter Weekend: We have another retreat during the winter at Axis Church. It is another chance to have a weekend fueled by fun and fellowship with other students that follow Jesus. We stay overnight Friday at the church and then Saturday head to Perfect North for tubing. There is a guest worship band, awesome guest speakers, Core Group times, fun games, a crazy night game, and snow tubing.
Summer Missions Adventure Trip: 2023 - June 4-10th we will be headed to Florence, South Carolina to serve underprivileged communities with kids programs and building projects. We will also be experiencing a beach adventure.
