Junior High

“Connecting People Each Day to the Real Jesus by Infusing Truth in Students.”

 

At The MET Student Ministry we desire to make a connection with every Junior High student who walks through our church doors. We recognize that Junior High students are in a crazy time of life where not only the world and culture is changing but the students are as well. We hope that these students will find a place to CONNECT through fun events like paintball or dodge ball. We love doing events that speak to the hearts of young teenagers, especially the one’s who love getting wild and having a lot of fun. Some events to look for in junior high are as follows:

Truth Weekend                                    February 2009

Sports & Sex Lock-In (for Guys Only)    March 2009

Girl’s Ministry Event TBA                      April 2009

            Junior High Camp                                June 2009

            King of the Beach                                August 2009

 

After coming to an event or two Junior High Students are welcome to join our “front door ministry opportunity” called Refuge on Wednesday nights (6:30-7:45p.m.). Refuge is a time of WORSHIP and BELONGING for any student who wishes to come and be a part. We have a student led worship band, coupled with games and skits, and then we always have a message that lifts up the scriptures. Wednesday nights are high intensity for everyone to brighten their week and help everyone refocus on the Truth of God and His Word.

From there we aim to get students plugged into a place where they can BELONG like our Junior High Life Groups on Sunday mornings. Our emphasis in Junior High Life Groups is for our students to really become familiar with Bible study and the scriptures. We want students when they enter High School to be able to feel comfortable opening their Bibles to read and share from them in a groups setting. Junior High Life Groups meet at 8:15, 9:30, and 11:00am.

At Life Groups students will find pastors and adult Titus Leaders who will pour into them each week through hang time, a brief opener, and then a Bible study that is discussion oriented (30-40 minutes). All of this will be done at a table of 10-15 students of the same sex and grade. These adults want to help give direction to these students and many of them have times outside of Sunday Life Groups where they get everyone together to have some fun together (Pool parties, Astro’s game, bowling, etc.) These adults and pastors who show up every Sunday are committed to bringing fun and Truth to the ministry for all Junior High students.
