Middle School
The mission of our youth programs is to provide kids with a community that encourages growth in the Christian faith. These ministries include Scripture study, prayer, worship, service opportunities, and fun/fellowship.
Middle school youth are encouraged to be involved in the church as a body as well as in the communities in which they live. Service activities and fun events planned specifically for middle schoolers are open to all who wish to participate. Financial assistance for any activity is available; just talk to Judy Ko, the Minister to Youth.
Team 78
During the school year, Team 78 – for students in grades 7 and 8 — meets on the first three Wednesday evenings of each month, after the all-church dinner. Our schedule:
Dinner – 5:30 p.m.
Youth room opens – 6:30 p.m.
Catechism – 6:45-7:15 p.m.
Activities – 7:15-7:55 p.m.
The first part of each night, we’ll be working through the Heidelberg Catechism and learning how to better understand the faith by which we live. The second part of each night we’ll incorporate games and activities, participate in a short field trip, have fun and fellowship, and more. Email judy.ko@coscrc.org for more information.
Church School
During the Sunday morning education hour (10-10:45 a.m.), the 7th and 8th graders are working through the Walk With Me curriculum from Faith Alive. This Sunday morning study is appropriate both for middle schoolers who attend the Wednesday evening Catechism study and for those who can’t make it on Wednesday evenings.
Other Goings-On
- Each month a service project (like serving at the Mobile Food Pantry) and a fun activity (e.g., a Griffins game or an all-nighter) is offered.
- Coffee meetings: Students are occasionally invited to coffee with Judy. You’re welcome to email judy.ko@coscrc.org to set up a time.
