Middle School Ministry

Bilbo Baggins is a hobbit who enjoys a comfortable, unambitious life, rarely travelling further than the pantry of his hobbit-hole in Bag End. But his contentment is disturbed when the wizard, Gandalf, and a company of 13 dwarves arrive on his doorstep one day, to whisk him away on a journey "there and back again". They have a plot to raid the treasure hoard of Smaug the Magnificent, a large and very dangerous dragon.

It happens to every parent. One day, you have a sweet son or daughter who loves to snuggle on the couch and who puts a smile on your face just by walking into the room. The next day, it's as if someone left the door open and let in an alien with a smart mouth and an attitude that, frankly, you could do without. Entering middle school is like stepping onto a different planet - for parent and child alike. It's a planet where peer pressure, social media, and hormones can wreak havoc in your child's life.

It’s your faith, why not own it. The Middle School Survival Series will help you answer all the new questions that you have as you journey through middle school.

Life gets tough. People get mean. How do we push through? What does God's plan mean for our lives? What does it mean to be God's girl in middle school? Well, that's what Just Us Girls is all about.

Middle school hasn’t gotten any easier. The pressure to fit in skyrockets, and our self-confidence takes a dive. We’re trying to be God’s girl in middle school, but what does that look like? What’s God’s girl to do when the drama kicks in, when you’re bullied, or when that boy doesn’t like you back? We need to find our confidence. We need some time for Just Us Girls.
