ALL Students are Invited to Walk Together in the Calling of Christ
The middle and high school years can be quite the roller coaster! And yet, we know it's a critical period between childhood and adulthood.
As a ministry, our goal is to partner with families as their world grows more complex: to continue inviting ALL students to walk together in the calling of Christ, and helping them to grow in wisdom, in stature, in favor with man, and in favor with God.
What to Expect
Student ministry is a place where students can come just as they are, make new friends, and encounter Jesus in a personal and meaningful way. There's no weight of expectation, and there's no pressure to fit in - we just get to lean in to the grace of Jesus that's already at work in their lives and in their communities.
Throughout the school year, middle and high schoolers gather at Good Shepherd every Sunday evening at 6:30 PM for student-led worship, biblical teaching, small group time with their peers, games, snacks, and plenty more fun to go around.
