This Week in Student Ministry
This Wednesday, our students will have a special opportunity to serve and connect with some of our homebound church members. We’ll meet at the Youth House at 6:00 PM for dinner, then leave at 6:20 PM to make three visits. We plan to return to the Youth House by 8:00 PM. This is a meaningful opportunity for our students to give back, encourage members of our church family who aren’t able to be with us on Sundays, and build relationships across generations. We’re looking forward to an evening of conversation, encouragement, and showing the love of Christ in a simple but important way. Looking Ahead: Back-to-School Prayer Night Next week will be another special night as we gather for a Back-to-School Prayer Night. With students returning to school on August 20, we want to intentionally cover the new school year in prayer. We’ll travel to the Middle School and High School to pray over our schools, students, teachers, administrators, and staff. We’ll ask God for His protection, wisdom, courage, and opportunities for our students to live out their faith throughout the year. Parents are welcome to join us for this special time of prayer. We would love to have you come alongside our students as we pray for the school year ahead. We hope your student can be part of both of these meaningful Wednesday nights!

Back to the Youth House--and Looking Ahead!
Parents, this week Student Ministry returns to the Youth House! As summer begins to wind down, we’ll start helping our students prepare for the transition back to school—not only academically, but spiritually. A new school year brings new routines, relationships, opportunities, and challenges. We want our students to enter it knowing that God has placed them right where they are for a purpose. This week, I’ll introduce SENT, a simple framework that will help guide our students as they return to school: S — See People: Look beyond ourselves and truly see the people God has placed around us. E — Engage with Intentionality: Build meaningful relationships and connect with others purposefully. N — Notice Needs: Pay attention to the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of others. T — Tell About Jesus: Be ready to share the hope and love of Jesus through our words and actions. We want students to recognize that they are SENT by God into their schools, teams, friend groups, and neighborhoods. Each day gives them opportunities to care for others, live out their faith, and make Jesus known. This fall, we’ll also focus on a series of Foundations lessons. These lessons will help students develop a stronger understanding of what they believe and build a biblical foundation that can support them as they navigate everyday life. Together, SENT and Foundations will help students grow deeper in their faith and live it out with purpose. Coming Up Next week: Our students will visit some of our homebound church members. This will be a wonderful opportunity for them to serve, encourage others, and build relationships across generations. August 19: We’ll hold a special Prayer for Schools, asking God to guide and protect our students, teachers, administrators, and school staff as the new year begins. September 11–12: We’re looking forward to the Uprise Music Festival on Friday and Saturday! More information about this event will be shared soon. Please pray that our students will begin this school year confident in who they are, attentive to what God is doing around them, and ready to make a difference wherever they are sent. We’re excited about everything ahead and grateful to partner with you!
