Student Ministries

SWAT

"SWAT" (Spiritual Warfare And Training) is our Wednesday night program designed for Jr. High and High School students.  It is a high energy worship service for teenagers that consists of a live praise band, video, interactions with breakout groups called "SWAT Teams", a challenge from scripture, and lots of fun!  Students in 7th - 12th grade from across Faulkner County come together for SWAT.  SWAT meets at 6:45 p.m. in the Worship Center at Antioch.

 

BRIDGE

"BRIDGE" (Being Real In Devotion to God Everyday) is our Sunday morning event for students in the 5th & 6th grades.  This preteen group of young people can often feel a little uneasy about themselves.  They are not "children" any more - yet they are not yet teens...so where do they go?  Well, we want to help them "bridge" that gap from children's church to the youth group.  We want to help this group establish a firm foundation for the crazy teen years just over the horizon.  We meet at 9:30 a.m. upstairs in the "JAM Room".

 

SERVICE OPPORTUNITIES

Jesus taught us that we should have the heart of a servant.  We want to help students learn that life is not all about what they "get", but even more importantly, what they "give"!  Students are challenged to help with things such as canned food collection, distributing food to families in need, hosting a Christmas party for under-privileged children, as well as longer term projects such as a mission trip to Mexico.  These are just a few examples of ways in which students are challenged to put feet to their faith.
