Guiding Young Hearts to God

We believe the neXt generation isn’t just the future—they’re part of what God is doing right now. At LifechurchX, we’re passionate about helping kids and students discover their identity in Christ, grow in faith, and live with purpose.

From fun, Bible-based programs to mentorship and youth events, we provide age-appropriate spaces where young hearts can encounter Jesus, build strong foundations, and develop lasting friendships. Together, we’re raising up world changers for the Kingdom.

Finding Faith through
Fun, Worship, and Adventure

Every summer, LCXYouth heads to Fusion Camp in Ironton, Missouri—a week-long eXperience for students in 6th-12th grade. From swimming and fishing to wild games and late-night laughs, this trip is packed with fun and connection.

Every summer, LCXKids transforms our campuses into an eXciting adventure for kids! Our week-long VBS program combines high-energy games, creative crafts, memorable music, and Bible stories that come alive. Kids will make new friends and discover God’s love in fresh ways. Each day builds on a central theme that kids will talk about all summer long!
