STUDENTS
TBC Student Ministry 2024 Focus:
TBC Student Ministry exists to proclaim Christ and make disciples who live faithfully dependent upon God for fruitfulness.
Weekly Ministries:
Sunday Morning Bible Fellowship Groups - 9:15 am
Students enjoy a focused time exegetically studying God's Word in peer groups led by gifted adult teachers. Peer groups have some overlap in age and grade yet are separated by gender. This Fall & Winter, we are studying the book of Acts together.
Sunday Evening Small Groups - 5:00-7:00 pm
Sunday nights kick off at 5:00 pm with dinner provided to middle and high school students in the ROC Coffee Shop. Dinner is followed by a short teaching time. Small Groups follow the teaching time in order to dig deeper into the study through dialogue and faithful application. Following Small Groups, students play Ultimate Frisbee every Sunday evening from 7:00-8:00 pm in the ROC Gym. This Fall, we are walking through the book 10 Questions Every Teen Should Ask (and Answer) about Christianity by Rebecca McLaughlin.
Wednesday Evening, "The Gathering" - 6:30-7:45 pm
Wednesday nights start with dinner in the Fellowship Hall at 5:30 pm followed by The Gathering, our student-led worship service at 6:30 pm in the ROC Auditorium. This time on Wednesday nights begins with an organized and spontaneous ice-breaker enjoyed by students and leaders alike followed by worship led by the student band and an exegetical study of Scripture. Following The Gathering, Open ROC Nights are opportunities for students to enjoy fellowship with one another through games and activities from 7:45-9:00 pm. This Fall, we are preaching through the book of Colossians.
