His Chosen Generation
The Teens of MRBC
The Youth Staff and I are excited to begin a “New Year” in the teen group. The summer has been exciting, but we are geared up and ready for the coming ministry year. This year your teen will have many opportunities to grow closer to Christ by being involved with the Teen Ministry here at Monclova Road Baptist Church. We realize that your teen needs YOUR support, encouragement and example to grow spiritually and stand for the faith. Will you be a godly example this year and encourage your teenager to be personally involved in ministry through the teen group here at MRBC?
Our theme for the 2009-10 year is “The Church, It’s Allies and Enemies.” Each Wednesday Night, your teen will be learning about these important doctrines from the Word of God. This year, because of space issues, we will be keeping the 8:53 group (7th-9th) and the 11:50 group (10th-12th) completely separate on Wednesday nights. Mr. Chad DeFriece and I will be co-teaching both 8:53 and the 11:50.
Occasionally, other leaders will be doing some teaching. Also, in an attempt to provide continuous opportunities for preaching, several of our teens will take on teaching roles on Wednesday Night as well.
Each Sunday morning, our entire teen group will meet together for songs and announcements at 9:30. After the opening exercises, we will move to separate Sunday school classes designed for age-appropriate learning: 8:53 girls, 8:53 guys, 11:50 girls, and 11:50 guys.
Our Sunday school classes will be focusing on a series called “Life Step: Connecting Walk and Worship.” Each lesson taught will be derived from the weekly Quiet Time that we encourage all of our teens to purchase.
We hope you realize that we have your teen’s best interests at heart and desire for them to grow in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Our desire is to come along side of you as a parent and help instruct, guide, discipline and love your teenager. Please know that throughout the year, our youth staff will be praying for you and your teen to be more like Christ.
