Come and be known.
Whoever you are, wherever you're from, you are welcome here.
Welcome to the Hickory Student Ministry! We are redefining what student ministry looks like by creating more than a fun place to hang out. We are building a ministry that helps students ask questions and make discoveries about the God who created them, who loves them and who is calling them to greater things!
