Generation Next

 

Generation Next is a junior youth group for 5th and 6th graders.

We meet on Sunday Mornings at 10:30 a.m. and Wednesday Evenings at 7:00 p.m.

 

Our Goal

Generation Next was created to help our 5th and 6th graders adjust to the Youth Group environment. The teachers are committed to helping pre-teens grow spiritually and develop the skills needed to be active participants in their youth group.

Our Leaders

Michelle Wilkins is our co-ordinator. Our teachers include Dorian Lain, Larry Varnum and Smitty Smith.


Fellowship

It is important that the children grow together through fellowship. We try to coordinate outside activities throughout the year. We ask that each family choose one month and host an activity. The children love to get together to skate, swim, go to movies, etc.

Service

Service work is very important to Gen Next. We have visited the Ronald McDonald House to clean and organize the kitchen. The 6th graders have joined the 7th graders on a Mission Trip to Cullman, AL where we helped with painting, cleaning and gardening at Child Haven, a facility for children.

Gen Next serves in our church. We help with games at our Fall Festival and Spring Fling. We serve at the annual Teacher Appreciation Dinner. We help with the children’s Christmas Program each year. We are workers at VBS each summer.

Gen Next sponsors a child from Africa through Compassion International. His name is Feyisa. Our support has helped Feyisa attend school. We ask the kids to perform an extra chore at home to earn their monthly donation.

Parents Welcomed

Parent involvement is very important. We welcome your ideas and suggestions. If you are available to help teach, please let us know.

 

We are honored to be a part of your child’s spiritual journey.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us.
