Our goal is to create a brave and curious space where all students feel seen, celebrated and affirmed for who they are. We are a Reconciling Student Ministry Group so no one ever has to question if they belong here.

How we live it out.

Worship & Small Groups.

LOC Students meet weekly during the school year for small groups, worship, games & dinner. We have incredible small group leaders that come each week to listen and walk with our students.

Wednesday Night Schedule:
Doors open at 5:30, Dinner begins at 6
6:30 - 7:30: Worship/Teaching | Small Groups
7:30 - Pick-up

Service.

We take what we learn in worship and small groups and let it move us outside. We participate in service projects year-round in Charlotte and have a mission trip each year.

Our mission partner is Cross Connection!

We value mission partners who can provide a safe, curious, and inclusive space for our students to serve.

If you are interested in attending, please reach out to taylor@locumc.org.

Retreats.

We have multiple retreats offered throughout the year. Our Winter Retreat is in partnership with Cross Connection and is Feb 14-17 in Blowing Rock, NC.

This retreat is for middle & high school students, incorporating confirmation break-outs for the confirmands throughout the weekend.
