DISCIPLESHIP GROUPS

DISCIPLESHIP GROUPS

The Discipleship Program is designed to help our students grow in key areas as young believers in Christ. We focus on growing in God’s Word, praying, serving the Lord, and evangelism. The way we do that is by grouping 4-6 students of the same gender with 2 adults for the entire four-year process. Together they will live out what they are studying together.

The 9th grade requirements are: the group meeting the second Friday of each month from October – May, and attending the Wednesday night midweek study. These are mandatory components of the group all four years. With these commitments participants will have the word of God poured into their lives over 250 times!
Each year we add one requirement, 10th grade: one Sunday night prayer meeting each month, 11th grade: service in the church, and 12th grade: reaching out to those around us with the Word of God.

THE END GOAL

When students graduate from our high school ministry and from this program specifically, it is my desire to graduate tight-knit groups of young men and women who are steeped in God’s Word, know how to pray, serve, and reach others with the love and truth God has given to them. In other words, the end goal is to graduate young men and women who are already living like true disciples of Jesus Christ.

It is also our hope and prayer that the relationships students make with their group, their leaders, and those they serve with, will continue after senior high. We realize the next four years are just a small part of your full life with Christ and we desire to invest in a way that benefits both now and later.

I understand that this will be a commitment for both parents and children, as it is for me and my high school staff, but there are no shortcuts to true Christian life and character. These are truly the best things that we can offer you and your teen, and I believe they are the very things that God offers any Christian that is seeking to follow hard after Him.
