If you are
in middle school (grades 6-8), then this is the group for you!
Our Junior
High Youth Group, “JAZ,”meets Wednesday evenings, September through June,
under the direction of our youth leader, Sarah Karstens. The JAZ program includes dinner together, beginning at 6
p.m., then a group activity such as a discussion night, mission project or
social activity.
Past
projects include making blankets for Project Linus, cooking for the homeless
shelter and decorating for Christmas at a local nursing home.
On the
lighter side, highlights of JAZ fellowship and fun include go-carting and a
scavenger hunt to the local mall. Lock-ins and youth retreats are also part of
planned activities.
Youth in
grades 6 through 8 are welcome to participate and bring their friends as well.
Adult volunteers assist with the program and youth parents support by
providing dinner or transportation and chaperon support to social events.
