Students in grades 6 through 12 are an important part of our church family. We offer a variety of ways for students to learn and use the gifts that God has blessed them with in a regular basis.

Confirmation
Confirmation classes walk students in Grades 7 and 8 through the core beliefs of the Christian church. The topics include Prayer, Baptism, The Lord’s Supper, Forgiveness of Sins, The 10 Commandments and the Apostle’s Creed. Students are divided into small groups by age and gender, paired with an adult small group leader. Each night includes a small group game, large group teaching and small group discussion. For more about the importance of Confirmation, contact Jason Christ, Director of Middle School Ministries.

Crossroads Connect (Upcoming)
Students play games, hang out with peers and get away from the pressures of the day while also digging into God’s Word. Some weeks are more focused on building relationships through games and activities and other weeks are more focused on exploring the Bible around a relevant topic. There are also evenings that focus entirely on a service project in order to connect with the greater family of God at First Trinity. Crossroads Connect meets on Thursdays from 6:30 – 8 p.m.
Crossroads Events
Throughout the year there are opportunities for students to gather for other events such as Acquire the Fire, the 30 Hour Famine and more.

Summer Trips and Missions (More Info)
Summer trips are of great importance in student ministry. We see time and time again that getting away for a week from “everyday life” has enormous spiritual and relational impact that continues throughout the year. Whenever possible, we aim to have the summer trip connect with the themes for that year, or use them as a launch into topics of the coming year. Because of that, we will rotate between Workcamp mission trips, team building experiences and weeks focused on spiritual growth through worship, Bible study, and fellowship. This year we will attend Workcamp in Hastings, MI.
