Junior High

Overview

The Jr. High ministry exists for 6-8th grade students who are believers or unbelievers. Our goal is to reach students where they live. Church of the Open Door exists to glorify God in every avenue of life. Our desire for our youth is to develop a stronger, more mature relationship with their God through exciting interaction in God's Word. We want the Jr. High ministry to connect with God and others through weekly and monthly gatherings.

Youth Sunday School (YSS):

The Jr. High meets in the youth room from 9:30-10:30 am. They start with a hot topic discussion before they jump into the Bible where they will experience practical application for their growth in Christ.

Sunday Night (Cross Over):

This is our weekly youth group gathering for 6th-12th grade. The time is from 6-7:30 pm, although everyone is invited to come a few minutes early and leave a few minutes late to hang-out with friends. Each week includes a variety of games, skits, food, small group discussions, and a challenge from God's Word.

Ministry Opportunities:

We encourage the teens to serve the Lord with their life where they can minister. These ministries include A.I.M. Active In Ministry, which provides a once a month opportunity to be involved in youth ministry. This begins at 4:30 and transitions into Cross Over. Other areas of ministry include Awana on Wednesday nights and Kids Connection of Sunday morning.
