LIFT Gwinnett 2026
The Essentials
What is LIFT Gwinnett?
LIFT Gwinnett is a high-energy weekend designed for middle and high schoolers, featuring three Gospel-centered messages, vibrant worship, and small group time to connect and reflect. This experience encourages students to grow in faith and embrace who God uniquely made them to be.
2026 Theme
The Essentials
This year, we’re returning to the essentials of the early Church (Acts 2): God’s Word, genuine community, breaking bread, prayer, and the power of the Holy Spirit. These weren’t just traditions—they were essentials that anchored believers.
All weekend long, students will rediscover how those same essentials shape real faith today: learning together, worshipping wholeheartedly, and forming friendships that last well beyond the event.
The Details
Everything you need for LIFT Gwinnett in one place — schedules, packing, forms, and how to get in touch.
FAQs
Where will students be staying?
Students will be staying in Host Homes under the leadership of a Cross Pointe family. Host Homes, Group Leaders, and anyone serving with CP Students must complete and pass a background check and screening process. This is church policy.
Will my student be able to call me?
Yes, students can contact their parents or guardians. However, cell phones are discouraged. We want students to unplug so they can be present over the weekend. Cell phones may be allowed during free times and at night if needed, but not during sessions or small group meeting times.
How will they be transported?
We ask that the Host Homes and Group Leaders work together on transportation to and from Cross Pointe. No student is permitted to drive without a CP Students staff member’s permission.
Will the students need extra money?
Extra money is not necessary. This year all activities, food, and merch will be included in your registration.
What if my student doesn’t know any of the other students going to LIFT Gwinnett?
If your student doesn’t know anyone attending, don’t worry! This event is specifically designed to help students build new friendships that can last well beyond the weekend. Through engaging activities and small group discussions, they’ll have plenty of opportunities to connect with other students in our community and feel right at home.
