Willow Creek Community Church grew out of a student ministry. Ministry to young people is still vital to the church. Promiseland, the church's ministry to children, strives to make sessions with that age group the best hour of every child's life by introducing the Bible and build community. Sonlight Express, the ministry to junior high students, is important in that it serves kids when they are beginning to ask questions about themselves and how they fit in the world. Student Impact, which serves high school students, is there to prepare them for some of the biggest decisions they'll make in their life. Axis, the ministry to 20-somethings, serves those who are starting out in their adult life and facing critical challenges from the world.
