Discipleship Opportunities
Midweek Life Groups | Boys 5:30PM | Girls 6:30PM 👈
We want to encourage kids to attend our Wednesday Night Student Life Groups. While Sunday nights are focused on mixed groups learning together, we also know how important it is for young men and young women to connect more deeply with one another. Wednesday nights will provide that space—where students can gather with mentors, discuss the unique issues they face, and see how God’s Word speaks into their lives as growing disciples.
Young Men’s Group – Meets Wednesdays at 5:30 PM, led by Pastor Dave
Young Women’s Group – Meets Wednesdays at 6:30 PM, led by Jamie Beetham and Chelsea Ingrassia
These gatherings will be a meaningful time of mentorship, encouragement, and spiritual growth. Encourage your student to come ready to share, listen, and grow in Christ together with their peers and leaders.
As a tool for discipleship, we are including a weekly Family Connection that gives you something to discuss with your students related to what they are learning on Sunday night. We are also sending home a binder for each student with a Daily Discipleship Guide with five days of devotionals related to our study from Sunday night. If your student was not able to attend we do have a binder for them, but we don't want the to miss out on this weeks devotionals so I have included a digital copy below:
