SPECIAL EVENTS

We are excited to see what God has in store for our students this fall! We have a lot of stuff coming up—sports events, games, and short trips.  We are excited about your students not only participating in Sunday morning and Sunday evening discipleship stuff, but also for these amazing opportunities to connect, grow, and be filled with God’s Word!

 

Our first event is a hike in the Shenandoah region on September 20th!  It’s free, affordable, and promises to be a lot of fun. We’ll meet at the church at 9:00 AM and spend the day enjoying God’s beautiful creation while reflecting on His Word together and will return in the evening.  Students will need to bring a bag lunch for the hike.
 
We’re also inviting all parents to a Parent Meeting on October 5th from 5:30 to 6:00 PM. This will be a great chance for us to meet, share details about upcoming student ministry events, and pray together as leaders and parents for what God is doing in this ministry!  We will distribute a calendar for October, November, and December events at the 10/5 meeting.

Please email Jason, Abner, or Ashelynn Kelly our student ministry team leader with any questions about upcoming opportunities for our students to connect with each other, grow in the Lord, and impact their friends from the community.

 

Ministry Overview

 

We exist to glorify God by reaching students for Christ. We teach what it means to be reconciled and recreated into His image. We intentionally connect with and equip students through Bible-centered teaching, while also showing them what it looks like to be gospel-centered disciples of Jesus Christ. 

 

Next-Generation Ministry Objectives:

  • Students to know who the Bible is about and why it is true and authoritative.
  • Students to cultivate a Christ-centered faith that produces spiritual fruit.
  • Students to pursue the Great Commission in and outside the local church.

 

As with all programming for minors, all regular volunteers have been screened via a background check and have been trained regarding best practices for safety and security.  

Sunday Mornings

9:15AM-10:15AM:  During this hour students learn biblical truths about God and how they should live in light of the gospel. We are currently going through the book of Acts.

 

10:30AM-11:30AM:  Our students participate in the entirety of the corporate worship service each week, at times playing significant roles as volunteers.  

Sunday Nights

6:00PM-7:30PM:  On Sunday nights our students have their large group gatherings.  This includes a time of organized games, Bible study, and small groups.  Sunday nights are a great time to bring a friend and to experience community while growing in their knowledge of and love for God.  During the summer, students gather from 6-8PM.  

Wednesday Nights

6:30-7:30PM:  On Wednesday nights during the school year our students participate in small group Bible studies or serve in various roles including Boys on Track, Girls in Action, Mission Friends, Children's Choir, Preschool Choir, and Tech support. 

Special Events

Our student ministry participates in numerous special events, retreats, and mission projects/camps.  Some of these include: Being Neighborly Outreach, REC Weekend, game nights, and escape room adventures. Additionally, our students regularly serve in the broader life of the church through events like VBS and the Easter Egg Hunt. Last summer, our students participated in MFuge Summer Camp @ Milligan University in TN.
