“Do not merely listen to the word and so deceive yourselves, do what it says.”

James 1:22Youth Ministry

Youth Calendar

The Purpose of Midway Youth Ministries is to expose students to the gospel of Jesus Christ, equip students with the understanding of the Lordship of Christ over all of life, and to exhort them to think biblically and critically in their journey towards adulthood. All by the grace of God. All for the glory of God.

The Youth Ministry at Midway Presbyterian

Church functions on a two-fold principle. First, parental in that we assist parents in the raising of their youth. God places primary responsibility upon parents and uses them as a foundational way to grow and strengthen his Church. We want to come alongside them and support them in anyway possible. Second, covenantal in that we believe that God has gathered his body together in a covenant relationship, and therefore, we have a responsibility to Him and to one another. This means each member plays a role in supporting, encouraging, and exhorting our youth to seek after Christ and follow Him in biblical obedience. 
  

We seek to always blend these two essential principles together in our Youth Ministry at Midway Presbyterian Church. This, Lord willing, will provide a setting where parents are assisted, youth are discipled, the church is strengthened, and above all, God is glorified.

MYM Purpose Statement

1. This ministry is to be covenantal in that it will be primarily aimed at the covenant children of this congregation.
2. This ministry is to be relational in that personal contact between staff, volunteers, and students will be key to effective discipleship.
3. This ministry is to be parental in that our goal is to assist, encourage, support, supplement and complement healthy family Christian nurture.
4. This ministry is to be discipleship-oriented in that our goal is to see our young people become mature Christians rooted and grounded in grace.
5. This ministry is to be ordinary means of grace-based in that through the ministry of the word, participation in the sacraments, and the life of prayer is the normal way God brings about growth in the Christian life.
6. This ministry is to be missional in that having received from the Lord the good news of the gospel and His grace, our young people go out to fulfill the great commission by being salt and light in the world.

Sunday School

Every Sunday at 9:45am, our Middle School and High School gather in their separate rooms for instruction that is bible-centered and Christ-exalting.  We cover several different topics throughout the year that are age appropriate to the youth we serve.

Wednesday Night Youth Program

On Wednesday Nights we gather together for a time of fellowship, worship through music, and  teaching. We seek to teach through entire books of the bible, in order to learn more about our triune God, and our duty to Him.

Bible Studies

Each week we have boys and girls bible studies that meet to further disciple our youth. The time and location of these studies can be found in the church bulletin or from one of our Youth Helpers.
