Our aim is to create a community of high school students that is centered on The Word of God, Discipleship, and the abundant life that is found in knowing Christ.
WEDNESDAY
NIGHTS
7:00-8:30PM
At our High School gathering, students will engage in three things:
• Worship through music
• Bible teaching
• Community with other students in Connect Groups
Grab your Bible, notebook, and a pen and join us Sunday nights as we grow closer to one another, and to our God!
SUNDAY
MORNINGS

We believe there is a great benefit to teens being in the main church gathering on Sunday mornings. So, sit together as a family, or students are welcome to sit with us on the right side of the Sanctuary every Sunday!

MEET THE TEAM
Malik Black
High School Director
Get to know Malik
Hey NewCov! My name is Malik Black and I am blessed and honored to join the NewCov youth team. I was born in Indiana and moved to Southern California when I was 10 years old. I have always served in youth ministry since graduating high school because I loved helping students find Jesus for themselves! In 2023 I graduated with a Masters in Leadership Theology at Life Pacific University. I have a beautiful wife Breann and an amazing son Stephen who are my world. Basketball holds a special place in my heart and spending time with family doing anything! I always felt a call on my life for full time ministry and am excited to start the journey here at NewCov!
Taylor Phillips
Youth Worship Director
Get to know Taylor
Hey NewCov Family! I’ve been on staff at NewCov since July of 2022 and have worked in ministry since 2019. My favorite part of working in the Creative Department is helping show others that worship is often more than just singing. I currently attend The Masters University with a major in Christian Ministries and will graduate in 2023. When I’m not at NewCov, you’ll usually find me on a pool deck coaching water polo or playing an instrument!
