KBC.ym is a dynamic group of young people in the 6th through 12th grades. We have high-energy group times and events full of games, activities, and laughs, but we also have mellow times of sharing, praying, and thinking with one .
KBC crafters, you’re invited to bring your projects to the WCC Community Room to work on and socialize with others at the same time.
Knollwood’s adult and youth hoopers are invited to come play basketball with other Knollwoodians and friends in a friendly, Saturday-morning game in the WCC gym. Contact Naomi Black-Bass with any questions.
Get ready for summer by making a colorful and bright tie-dye T-shirt with leader Sara Smith, our minister to children and families.
Youth Sunday is quickly approaching! This is always a special service in which our youth take on all the leadership roles, so please make plans to be here.

Bringing outstanding leadership and teaching to address the natural inquisitiveness of young people can seem a daunting task; however, these come together beautifully on Sunday mornings.
Bible study classes meet from 9:40-10:30 a.m. in the Noffsinger Youth Building.
On Sunday evenings we gather from 5:30-7:00 p.m. in our flagship program, SND.yg (Sunday Night Youth Group). After sharing a meal together, the group engages in exciting activities, times of prayer, and enlightening discussions.
Youth Sunday morning Bible study for 6th, 7th, and 8th graders is a time when they can become more familiar with the stories, lessons, and questions raised in the biblical narrative.

On Sunday morning, 9th-12th graders experience a Bible-centric time with insightful instructors who encourage youth to ask questions and think through these teachings.

SND.yg is our Sunday evening gathering for the entire youth group. Part fun, part prayer, part discipleship, all community building, this is where we build the bonds of our youth group community. We share a meal together in the Noffsinger dining room, have some fun, spend some time in prayer, and grow together through small group conversations about faith and life.

Through conversations with young people, we realized that weekdays are hectic and stressful. WNSD (WedNSDay Night) is a weekly oasis from that chaos, a time when we come together to simply be, to listen to one another and support one another in our journeys.


Music ministry for youth at Knollwood takes many forms. There are middle school and high school bell choirs; opportunities for instrumentalists in Knollwood Brass and guitar classes; private vocal instruction; and, of course, Youth Choir.
These singers, grades 6-12, provide music in worship on the first Sunday of each month.

Youth in grades 6-12 ring hymn arrangements, classical music transcriptions, and original sacred works for worship several Sundays during the year.
For 2025-26, there are three sessions (fall, winter, spring) and two age groups per session: Youth Bells I (intermediate 6-7th grade) and Youth Bells II (advanced 8-12th grade).

Our Instrumental Ensemble adds an extra level of joy, energy, and beauty to worship. The group is open to any high school or adult player of intermediate ability.
