Special Events Calendar
PLEASE NOTE: To participate in youth activities,
we request that a parent of each teen fill out and sign
a permission slip. You can download the permission slip here.
Wednesday Night Youth Group
Junior High and Senior High Youth Group meet at church on Wednesdays
from 7-8:30pm. We start off together in the sanctuary singing praises
to our amazing God (led by an outstanding youth worship team)
and then split into Junior and Senior High groups for age appropriate,
Bible-saturated lessons. We also make time for sharing our
lives, discussing the topic of the evening and praying in small
groups. And what youth group would be complete without fun
games and time to just hang out?!
Sunday School
Junior High Sunday School meets during the first service in
the youth room. A lot of JH students go down to the sanctuary
for the music, so we start the lesson after children are dismissed
from the service. However, all JH students are more than welcome – with
their parents’ approval – to come up to the youth
room at 9am to hang out and play foosball, bumper pool, or
darts.
During 6th-8th grade, students will spend one year surveying
the Old Testament, specifically in relation to the covenants
God made with His people and the prophecies leading up to the
coming of Christ, the Messiah. Then for two years students
will slow down the pace a bit and study nearly every chapter
in the New Testament, focusing on the coming, death, burial
and resurrection of Christ and how we as Christians are to
live in the light of God’s saving grace in our lives.
Senior High Sunday School meets during the second service in
the youth room. Typically we start right away at 10:45am with
a time of sharing and prayer and then jump into the lesson
about 20 minutes later. SH students dig into the Bible at a
slower pace and in more depth than JH students. We spent the
entire school year studying the Gospel of John and will be
studying a new book of the Bible (yet to be determined) starting
this fall. Over the summer we will be examining the C&MA
statement of faith, taking an in-depth look at what we believe
and why. In addition to these studies, students are able to
regularly share with each other through “Song Talks.” During
a “Song Talk” a student takes a moment to play
a song that has had a deep impact on their life and then shares
with the class why it is meaningful to them.
