Ministry Focus
The heart of everything we do in 78 is relationships. We are passionate about providing students opportunities to build community with each other, with safe, trusted adults, and with God. None of us were created to live life alone. Life is messy and challenging at times, and we are committed to being a place where students are seen, known, loved, and cared for – as they are – by us and most importantly, by God.
If along this journey there is a specific need our team can meet for you and your family, please don’t hesitate to call or email us anytime. Whether it’s a time of prayer, a run for food and supplies, or financial support, we would be delighted to serve you and your family. We’re in this together! Contact us calvarystudents@calvarygr.org.
Sunday Morning
Are you looking for a space to dig even deeper into how God might be calling you to apply the lessons taught in the Sunday Morning Sermons? 7&8 Ministry is offering just that space. Join us in Room 109, during the 10:45 service, for a chance to connect with your peers, dig deeper into what God said through each week’s sermon, ask tough questions about how it pertains to your life as a middle schooler, and understand better how God might be calling you to apply it to your life.
Events
7&8 Sunday Morning Class | 10:30am-12:00pm
We are super excited to offer a space for Seventh & Eighth Grade Students on Sunday mornings!
Calvary Church believes that each student (above 4th grade) should be attending Calvary’s Sunday Morning Worship Service. Therefore, this class is not a replacement for, but in addition to, that service.
Students must attend the 9AM Service in order to be a part of this class. This class is for students only.
The point of this class is to discuss the Sunday morning sermon, offer space for students to ask tough questions, and attempt to draw practical applications for our lives as Middle School Students.
7&8: Wednesday Night Programming | 6:30pm-7:45pm
Join us in Room 208 each Wednesday Night where students will get an opportunity to connect with friends, spend time worshipping God through song and by diving into His Word, play a fun game, and get a chance to dig even deeper with their peers in adult-led small groups (broken up by grade and gender).
7&8: Christmas Movie Night & Ugly Sweater Competition | 7:00pm-9:00pm
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Do you love watching Christmas movies with friends? Do you have the most amazing ugly Christmas sweater? If you answered yes to either of these questions, you will not want to miss this event! Join us as we watch a holiday classic while eating Christmas cookies and drinking hot cocoa, all while wearing our ugliest Christmas sweater.
