We exist as a student ministry to partner with families in the proper discipleship of their children who will, in turn, make disciples wherever god may lead them.

Middle School Ministry at The Glade Church enjoys some of the most fantastic volunteer leadership around. Our staff and volunteers work hard to make sure each student finds themselves at home and has an opportunity to encounter Jesus. 

Middle Schoolers meet in "The District" on Sunday mornings at 9 AM and Wednesday evenings at 6 PM. This is a fun and engaging space for students to hang out with friends and leaders. 


SUNDAY MORNINGS

On Sunday morning, Middle Schoolers meet from 9-10:15 AM on Sunday mornings.  Students hang out in The District and connect with other students and leaders.  While in The District, there is a brief welcome and announcement time.  Students are then released to their Sunday School classes for the remainder of the time.  The Sunday School classes are broken up by age/gender.  While in their Sunday School classes, students are walked through The Gospel Project and explore the overarching story of scripture and how all of the Bible points to Jesus. Many parents attend a Life Group during this hour and reconnect with their student(s) during the 10:30 AM corporate worship hour. During the 10:30 AM corporate worship hours, some students sit with their families while others sit in the front center of the worship room as a group.  We would love to see your middle schoolers and welcome them to the conversation this Sunday. 


WEDNESDAY EVENINGS

At 6:00 PM every Wednesday night during the school year, we host an on-campus worship service for Middle School students. The evening kicks off with hang-out time until 6:30, with games set up outside.  At 6:30, students enter The District for a worship service geared toward them.  The service wraps up at 7:30 and students are free to hang out until they are picked up by their parents.  We would love to have your student worship with us!
