One Eighty (Grades 6-8)
|
Who We Are
One Eighty is a weekly gathering of our Middle School students, grades 6th-8th. We are dedicated to providing a place for these students to connect with God, with other students, and with trusted leaders who truly desire to see them grow closer to Jesus as they navigate through the tough transition period of early adolescence.
What To Expect
We meet on Sunday mornings during the teaching portion of both services with the goal of challenging our Middle School students to apply biblical principles to their lives. Our students start off in the main auditorium with the adults for worship. Typically they sit together in the front row of the section closest to the youth room, but your student(s) are welcome to sit with you throughout worship. After worship they head back to the youth room, along with our Middle School leaders where the group starts off with the students playing a game together. Next we do a 15-20 minute discussion from the Bible that correlates with the monthly topic we are currently talking through. With the remaining time we have the students socialize and play games together like our nintendo wii, foosball, ping-pong, board games, etc.
Our Middle School program also has monthly events we do because we believe that it is important for students to develop meaningful friendships, outside the context of Sunday morning alone, with other students who follow Jesus.
For more information please feel free to contact our Youth Leader, Scott Bobsin.

| Our students are constantly bombarded through media, music, internet, T.V., etc. with ideas about what is supposed to be normal when it comes to dating and sex. Although it can sometimes be a taboo subject within Christian communities, we believe it is INCREDIBLY important to talk about from the Bible. Many adults carry deeply seeded scars from poor decisions that were made in their formative years, and we long that our students don't go through some of the same painful mistakes we too often see in the culture today, including the church. Over this 4 week series we will talk about what it looks like to be a follower of Jesus, in high school, and how to follow Him even when the pressure feels like too much to not give in to. | |
