We exist to make more and better disciples of Jesus among high schoolers! HSM is a community of 9th-12th grade students who follow Jesus together, encouraging one another to trust Him more every day. Our focus is to guide high schoolers to embrace the life-changing grace of the gospel and live rooted in the truth of God’s Word.

Life Groups are vital for student connection within our church, where you can expect to be known and loved on a personal level. There is no better place to grow in your relationships with others and with Jesus. Our amazing leaders are eager to come alongside you during your high school years and challenge you to grow as a follower of Jesus
If you are a student looking to serve on our Impact Team (Sunday welcome team), Tech, or Worship team, please click “apply here” below to meet with our team and learn more. We love to equip High Schoolers to use their giftings to serve the Lord in the church and grow in their leadership.
Here in HSM, we believe that following Jesus means actively engaging in His mission to reach the world with the hope of the gospel. We live this out by creating opportunities for students to be outward with their faith through what we call Global Encounter Trips.

Every Summer & Fall, we take our High Schoolers to a camp or retreat! These getaways are meant for growth, memories, and fun! We hope that these moments in HSM bring lasting transformation in your life and relationship with Jesus, while also helping you build relationships with others. You can look forward to so much fun between rec competitions, lake activities, late night challenges, and so much more.
It is a joy and privilege to serve the families of Canyon Hills as the High School Pastor. I love Jesus and love seeing high schoolers find hope and joy in Him. My hope is for every high schooler in the greater community to find belonging at Canyon Hills, where they are known and loved. My amazing wife, Emily, and I both grew up in Washington. She serves as one of the high school Life Group leaders and works as a dental hygienist across the street from the church. We love beach volleyball, spending time with friends and family, and just about anything adventurous—oh, and Chick-fil-A! I’d love the chance to meet you and know how I can care for your family within our church!
Hello! I’m Katie, the HSM Ministry Assistant here at Canyon Hills. I’ve been at this church since I was a kid and Student Ministries played a huge role in my walk with the Lord during my own time as a student. Now, it’s such an honor to pour into and spent time with the current students with the perspective of being a student. I started this role in January 2023, and it’s been amazing to witness how God is moving in our ministry. My husband, David, and I were married in May 2023, and we both serve on staff together—what a blessing! When I’m not working, I love anything related to baking, traveling, reading, and Trader Joes 🙂 Please don’t hesitate to come say hi when you see me at church! I’d love to meet you.
I absolutely love student ministry! God has given me a passion for helping students know, in the simplest way, that Jesus loves them—and so do we! As the Student Discipleship Director, I get to serve both Middle School Ministry (MSM) and High School Ministry (HSM), focusing on discipleship and student care. It’s truly the best job ever—hanging out with students, hearing their stories, and pointing them to Jesus. My husband, Michael, and I both grew up at Canyon Hills, and now we have the joy of serving on staff together (he’s a worship director). When we’re not at church, we love traveling, spending time with friends and family, and eating way too much good food!
