Here's the Student Ministries section in the upcoming "Churchman" (The name of our monthly newsletter):
January 21, 2009
I’m a firm believer that with Change comes much growth! In the recent past we’ve seen much change within our economy, within our presidency, within our personal lives, and even within our own ministry here in Lakewood.
Change seems to be the reoccurring theme up here in the student ministries, as both the students and the leadership are heading in a brand new direction with a brand new vision, trusting in The Spirit to guide us every step of the way. We’re implementing new structures to better support our commitment to building relationships.
With a commitment to stay true to preaching the word and refrain from watering things down, we have seen Christ bless us in growth, not only numerically but spiritually. Our desire for the next few years is to, “Hopefully and prayerfully set students on a trajectory of lifelong and passionate pursuit of Jesus Christ.”
Though doing this through prayer and trust in The Spirit, we’ve been blessed with many opportunities such as our upcoming winter retreat located on the camp grounds of Ponderosa Pines within the Big Bear Mountains, bringing on many new and avid volunteers, and technologically upgrading our room so that we can use multi media as a means of reaching our teenagers.
Here’s some upcoming events
February 1st Superbowl Party at 3:00pm in the upstairs Fellowship Hall
February 8th @ 6:00pm-7:30pm Middle School Kick off
February 27th- Mar 1st Ponderosa Pines Winter Retreat (High School)
And of course our usual meeting times:
High Schoolers:
Wednesday’s 6:00pm-8:30pm
Sunday’s 10:00am- 11:00am
Middle Schoolers:
Sunday evening’s 6:00pm- 7:30pm
Sunday Morning’s 10:00am- 11:00am
Though Change can be scary we want to continue to bring it on so that we may continue to persevere and grow! We ask for your prayers that God and His Spirit may continue to move within, not only our student ministry, but our whole church.
