Faith.Quest – 8th Grade

8th Graders have a unique opportunity on Sunday mornings to attend Faith.Quest, a class designed to teach students to go deeper in their faith, discover ways to link faith and life, find or renew a personal commitment to Jesus and His church, and embark on a journey of growth in that commitment to Jesus.

Faith.Quest students maintain a journal throughout the year and record thoughts, reactions, and questions about each weekly theme. At the end of the session, students have the opportunity to become members of Cedar Hills.

When the Faith.Quest session opens, all eligible students will be notified with start date and details.
