High School Ministry
At Cascade Hills Church, our student ministries are thriving. For your high schooler, we provide two fantastic ways for them to get involved.
TheHills High School Night - Wednesdays
Every Wednesday from 6:30 PM – 8:30 PM in The Studio, our high school students come together for a high-energy youth service for all 9th – 12th graders. These services combine music, an inspiring word from the Bible, games, and much more. Pizza ($1 a slice) and drinks ($1) are available for purchase as well.

Before I Go
“I will lift my eyes to the hills – where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the maker of heaven and earth.”
Psalm 121:1-2
Pastor Blake Moore
Blake and his wife, Jennifer, have been a part of the Cascade Hills family since 2015. After moving away and being a part of our Online Family for several years, they felt called to return to Columbus in the Fall of 2022. Blake was a football and weightlifting coach for many years in both middle and high schools. Even before he was called into ministry, he had a passion for influencing and shaping the lives of students. Pastor Blake is a gifted communicator and encourager, once a coach, always a coach. He has followed the call to impact our next generation for Christ. He and Jennifer have four children: Olivia, Eliza, Clint, and Annistan.
Jennifer Churchwell
Jennifer serves as the assistant to our High School Ministry Pastor. She loves seeing high school students come to know Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior, as well as encouraging them to develop their personal faith. Jennifer and her husband, Adam, have 4 incredible kids, Noah and his wife Maria, Nina, and Emma.
In the student ministry, we believe that the parent plays a vital role in their child’s spiritual growth just as much as their physical, and emotional development. But we also understand that the secular world is full of obstacles that might be counter-intuitive to these growth goals.
That’s why we’ve put together a few resources that we think will help. We want to keep parents informed on these issues as well as provide some guidance and talking points when discussing them with your high schoolers.
• With our children getting older, it’s essential to teach them discernment. Still, following your pre-teens every move might be tiptoeing towards an overprotective extreme. Find out more with this article entitled: Should I Stalk My Kid?

Become A Contributor
We believe there is nothing more important than God’s work, even more so when it comes to our youth. So consider contributing to a cause that matters. God’s not looking for perfection; He’s looking for your heart. If you have a heart of gratitude for all that God has done for you and you want to serve him and express that gratitude, we want to give you the opportunity.
