Our Mission

Life in Christ for every Alaskan student and the world beyond.

What is CPSM?

ChangePoint Student Ministries, is a student ministry ranging from 6th through 12th grade. We hope you'll join us as we hang out, build friendships, and grow together as young men and women of Christ.

Due North

Wednesday nights (6:30-8:30)

Middle School

Wednesday nights (6:30-8:30)

High School

Sundays (5:30-7:30)

Due North is a one year program specifically made for 6th graders. 
Due North prepares students to avoid common pitfalls and understand the world around them through a biblical world view. Students get connected with a small group coach and build healthy relationships as they learn what it looks like  to follow Christ in a broken world.
CPSM's Middle School ministry is all about life change. 
We believe it is  important to teach biblical lessons that students can apply to real life choices as they prepare for high school and adulthood.  Students will learn the importance of community, mentorship, and daily worship that will be the foundation of their faith journey to come.
CPSM's High School ministry is geared towards  digging deeper. 
 We believe high school is a pivotal stage where students need to be both encouraged and challenged to make their faith their own.  Student's will have  opportunities to go on missions and serve as leaders as they dig deeper into theology  and the heart of God.
