BEFC STUDENT MINISTRIES

(6th-12th Grade)


Your student won’t want to miss this welcoming and life-changing community!  

Each week we have fun and learn from God’s Word.  

Students get to be part of a small group based on grade and gender.  

Every small group has caring, consistent adult leaders who encourage the students as we all follow Jesus together!



WE WANT EACH STUDENT TO:


Belong here ❤️
Believe in Jesus ✝️
Be transformed by Jesus 🔥



WE HELP EACH STUDENT GROW IN THEIR FAITH:


BY SPENDING TIME WITH GOD


If we want to grow spiritually, we need to spend

time growing in relationship with God through

personal times of prayer, reading Scripture,

reflection, and worship.


BY SPENDING TIME WITH OTHERS


If we want to grow spiritually, we need to be

engaged in healthy community and godly

relationships with others — with people who

share our beliefs, as well as with people

who don’t.


BY USING YOUR GIFTS


If we want to grow spiritually, we need to

understand how God uniquely made us and

then use those unique qualities to love God, love

others, and impact the world around us.


BY SHARING YOUR STORY


If we want to grow spiritually, we need to

make faith a regular, everyday, go-to topic of

conversation as we learn to connect our stories

with God’s story and then share our stories with

others.
