Incoming 7th graders and families!

Sunday, August 17th we will start our morning with donuts in the SLC at 9:30 am and then head to Bible Study! Our Middle School boys class is led by Danny Rafferty, Brad Brown, Tom Harvengt, and Zach Layer. Our ladies’ class is led by Sara Atherton, Andrea Boenker, and Jenny Layer.
Wednesday night, August 20th (6:30 – 8:00 pm), we will have a Back to School BBQ at the Family Life Center and outdoor courts for our Student Ministry. This will be an opportunity to hang out with friends and leaders and welcome you to Student Life! We can’t wait to have your students join us for this fun night!
In the meantime, if you have any questions about anything, let us know! We know this can be an intimidating time for students as they step into Student Ministry, but even as change can be hard, we would encourage them to jump in and get involved. All of our students and leaders are excited to welcome them in! We look forward to serving your family in the coming days, months, and years. Please let us know how we can better serve you and welcome to Student Ministry!
We will see you soon!
