JAM Sunday School

Sunday School is offered during first and second hour in Rooms 201/203/204 and is designed to provide a learning opportunity for students to grow in their knowledge of the Bible and spiritual issues and to be challenged in ways that are relevant to youth culture. The goal of our Sunday School program is to teach God’s Word to students and equip them with the knowledge they need to grow into spiritually mature disciples. An offering is taken each Sunday to support our Compassion International child overseas.

For all students entering 6th, 7th, and 8th grade

X-treeme for 9-12th graders

The goal of the High School Student Ministry at Midland Free is to build disciples who carry the torch of the Great Commission to the next generation. Our passion is to see each student love and serve the Lord with all of their heart, mind and strength, not only during their school years, but also throughout their lives.

During the high school years, everything we do is intended to help students grow closer in their relationship with Jesus. Whether a student is a new believer or has been a Christian for ten years, we strive to provide relationships, experiences and training to continually challenge them in their walk with Christ.

Discipleship Groups

What is a discipleship group?

A group of available, faithful, teachable, and responsive 7th-12th grade students determined to grow in Christ-likeness and practically live out their faith. Discipleship Groups consist of 6-8 female or male students and one or two adult and/or student leaders. Groups meet weekly throughout the school year for Bible study, prayer, sharing, training, and fellowship.

Who should join a discipleship group?

  • Only those students who seriously want to grow deeper in their faith.
  • Only those who really want to serve Jesus.
  • Only those who are willing to be held accountable and to hold others accountable in love.
  • Only those who can really commit themselves to the group.

What commitments would I have to make?

  • Regularly attend weekly meetings (lasting approximately 1 1/2 hours). Meeting dates and times are determined by consensus of each group.
  • Willingness to support peers within the group through prayer,encouragement, reproof in love, etc.
  • A diligent study of Christian growth disciplines and discipleship (including occasional homework assignments).
  • Serving Midland Free and other organizations through service
    projects (as a group).

Why do we have to have commitments?

  • To have people of like mind together, committed to the same strategy and carrying it out the same way. And as a tool to help you discern whether or not God wants you to be involved.
  • Please pray about your decision to commit to a Discipleship Group. It can be loads of fun as your group grows together, but it can also be very challenging.
