Seven mile Youth //
loving and leading our youth to know jesus
Catechism Class - Sundays 9am 2x per month
On the 2nd and 4th Sundays our youth (Grades 6-12) gather at 9am to be formed and shaped by the Gospel. Our hope is that our youth would grow in three essential elements of discipleship—Christian Story, Christian Belief, and Christian Formation. We want our youth to know who God is and what He has done to reconcile the world to Him in the person and work of Jesus Christ. We desire that our youth would be grounded in Christian belief and sound theology. And all of that shapes and informs how we live as followers of Jesus Christ.
All of our volunteers are interviewed and background checked (National and State - CORI) to provide a safe and fun learning environment. We are currently using The Gospel Centered Life for Teens to help our teens learn about their identity in Christ. This 9-lesson Bible study, adapted from The Gospel-Centered Life by Bob Thune and Will Walker, gives teens and young adults a road map for living a life centered on God and the gospel. Youth are also encouraged to participate in the Sunday Gatherings with their family and friends from beginning to end.
Monthly Collective Youth Gathering
On 2 Sunday evenings per month from 6-7:30pm we gather with a number of other churches for a collective time of worship, games, and teaching. These gatherings are hosted by Beacon Community Church in Belmont

A NOTE TO PARENTS...
What a grace it is to partner together to love and lead our youth in worship of the living God! We care deeply about the sons and daughters that our Father has blessed us with and are working hard to lead them toward a grace-centered, Biblically-grounded love of Jesus and His gospel. Our prayer is that they will grow up holy, healthy, and happy to call Seven Mile Road home. We are so excited and so thankful that you are aligning with the church’s heart to serve and lead our children to this end. At Seven Mile Youth, our desire is to:
Partner with parents to make disciples
Infuse youth with the language and story of the Gospel
Celebrate as youth come to saving faith in Jesus
Form and shape youth as Christ Followers
