We exist as a student ministry to partner with families in the proper discipleship of their students who will, in turn, make disciples wherever God may lead them.


 

FIRST TIME GUESTS

We love to have new guests come hang out with Glade Students!  On Sundays and Wednesdays, our middle school gatherings are hosted in The District (down the hallway at the opposite end from the Worship Center).  We'll make introductions and connections to other students and to leaders in Middle School ministry.  Come join in the fun and get ready to study the Word of God!

MS Ministry Guest Card

Complete the guest card and we’ll introduce your student(s) to others in their grade. If you would like to plan a visit with us on either a Sunday or a Wednesday, please email David Watkins and we would love to ensure that your student has the best experience possible.


MEET DAVID WATKINS

David Watkins is the Middle School Director at The Glade Church.  David loves middle schoolers and builds relationships with them by having games and activities ready, as well as a readiness to share about the good news of Jesus Christ. 


SUNDAY MORNINGS

Sunday mornings are one of our primary gathering times where we meet from 9:15 to 10:30 AM. Our meetings take place in The District where we begin with a group rally and announcements that pertain to Middle School Ministry. From there, students divid into grade level small groups of boys and girls. All of this is done in hopes of engaging your student in a healthy, safe, and thought-provoking environment.

We study The Gospel Project.  A Christ-centered, chronological Bible study that takes our students on a three year journey through the storyline of Scripture, from Genesis to Revelation to see how Christ connects with all of Scripture. Along the way, students will discover the big picture of what God has been doing throughout redemptive history, and what it means for them.

WEDNESDAY EVENINGS

At 6:00 PM every Wednesday night during the school year, we host an on-campus worship service for Middle School students. The evening kicks off with hang-out time from 5:45 - 6:00, with games set up outside.  At 6:00, students enter The District for a worship service geared toward them.  The service wraps up at 7:15 and students are free to hang out until 7:45pm when they are picked up by their parents.  We would love to have your student worship with us!

A new series is underway, led by David Watkins.


OCTOBER MISSIONS FOCUS

The Glade Church mission focus is Trunk or Treat - we look to host over a thousand people on our campus for candy, photo ops, and fun.  Students can join in this mission focus and serve our community by decorating a trunk, greeting, or helping at the Special Needs respite tent.

FATHER-SON DISCIPLESHIP

These groups exist to glorify God through discipleship of our sons by modeling discipleship of our own.  Fathers and mentors will do life together, grow together, and disciple their sons.

FALL RETREAT

This retreat will be rooted in the Word and our theme will focus on service and living with a missions mentality.  We look forward to spending time with students out of their normal environment, away from their normal schedules and common distractions.  We anticipate God speaking in a unique way through Fall Retreat!
