Middle School
Middle School is a wild ride—emotions change by the minute, questions pop up nonstop, and students are figuring out who they are and where they fit in this big, crazy world. Student Ministries creates a safe space for middle schoolers to explore their faith, ask the big (and small) questions, and discover who God made them to be. We’re all about partnering with parents too—because let’s be honest, navigating middle school isn’t easy (for anyone).
Most of all, we want students to meet Jesus, grow in their faith and share His love with others—and have an awesome time doing it!
Wednesday Nights
September 16–May 12, 6:30–8pm, Student Center
On Wednesday nights, we’re all about following Jesus—and making lasting memories together. Each night is packed with games, worship, teachings and small groups. You belong here—so bring your friends and come join the fun!
No cost. All students must register each new school year.
STUDENT SUNDAY CONNECTS
Sundays, September 20–May 9, 10:15–10:45am
A chance for students and leaders to intentionally be together. Each week, we catch up, do something fun, and share a brief moment with God. And, as always, there will be donuts! So come for a simple, low-pressure time to be together and with God each week.
PIZZA CONNECT
1st Sundays, 12pm, Fireside Coffee Shop
Families, join us for lunch! On the first Sunday of each month, middle school students and their parents are invited to gather for free pizza and casual conversation. Connect with other families, chat with the Student Ministry team, and stay in the loop on upcoming events. Bring your questions and your appetite!
FALL FLING
October 16–18, Camp Shamineau
Get ready for an unforgettable weekend! Fall Fling is designed for students to slow down, have fun, build lasting community, and draw closer to Jesus.
Throughout the weekend, students will experience meaningful worship, engaging chapel sessions, and intentional small group time with their leaders. Plus, there’s no shortage of adventure—with zip-lining, horseback riding, high ropes, and tons of camp recreation!
Families, we know the cost of events like this can add up. We never want finances to be the reason a student misses out. If your family would benefit from financial assistance, contact Student Ministries or call 763-536-3251.
Student Calendar
Throughout the year, we've got fun activities lined up just for you and your friends—like Fall Fling, the legendary Sled Derby, bowling nights, and so much more. Find all upcoming dates on the Student Calendar:
Summer Ministry Trips
Grow closer to God and make a real impact through our summer trips. Each year, students get the chance to serve others, deepen their faith and experience unforgettable moments together. We rotate between attending the EFCA Challenge Conference and exciting ministry trips, giving you a fresh opportunity to grow and go each summer.
