History
Oneighty is the student ministry of Worship Center in Lancaster. The church has always had a strong heart for students, but took it to new heights in 2001 with the opening of our 17,000 square foot building in the Greenfield Corporate Center. It was a simple warehouse with a few offices when we leased it. We raised nearly $800,000 to renovate, furnish and equip the building. Money was donated by the church family and the community because of the obvious need for positive environments for our students. After seven great years at that facility, we are moving our youth group meetings to Worship Center. Oneighty meets every Wednesday from 6:15pm - 8:30pm.
Purpose
Our purpose is to help students experience their own relationship with God, grow spiritually and socially, and learn to serve our world.
We realize that this generation has many obstacles and that parenting has more challenges than ever. We desire to be a support and a resource to parents and families.

Details
Hours: Wednesday from 6:15-8:30pm, service time 7-8pm
Parents can drop off and pick up their students on the West side of the building. Please follow entrance and exit signs marked for go180.
Our Sunday night service is incredible! It usually features a crowd breaker game, worship with a live band, drama or video clip, and a topical message. Our services run from 6:30-7:30pm and are not optional for attending students.
We believe that God's Word holds truths and principles that are relevant to students today. We endeavor to teach the Bible in a fun and practical way that enables students to begin constructing a foundation that will serve them well as they grow and mature. We believe that God has a plan for each student and it can start now.
Some of our core topics include:
- Understanding God and his purposes
- Developing healthy relationships
- Honoring and respecting authority
- Family issues
- Making a difference

Rules and Procedures
Oneighty is designed to be a safe place where students can relax, have fun, and grow in their journey with God. We take the responsibility of safety and security very seriously. We have great students that attend Oneighty, so it is extremely rare for us to deal with significant problems.
Students who attend Oneighty must participate in the service which takes place from 7-8pm. Students who need to leave early must be picked up and signed out by an adult at our Info Desk.
Our standard rules are listed on the back of every student's I.D. tag and posted throughout the building. In addition to those rules, here are some other important procedures:
- All students must wait for their transportation on the West side of the building, unless other arrangements have been made.
- Students who violate our rules can be suspended, expelled and prosecuted if applicable
- Parents are notified by letter of any suspensions or expulsion
- Adults are not permitted to enter the building unless they are screened volunteers or staff. A volunteer would be happy to help you locate your student if necessary.
- Please feel free to contact us for any further information
Activities
Several times per year Oneighty holds events or retreats. Please note that all activity volunteers have been thoroughly screened and the safety and security of our students is our first priority. Our activities are well organized, supervised, and purposeful. If finances are ever a challenge, please contact the Oneighty staff. We often have scholarship funds available.
