We know how fun, exciting, crazy, and confusing life can be for middle school students. We invest in the lives of fifth and sixth graders with the understanding of how important it is for them to have a relationship with Christ personally at this age. Route 56 is our ministry for students in Grades 5 and 6 and meets during regular services most times.
Route 56 is based on Colossians 2:2 and the desire for our students to grow in their experience of God and in friendships with each other. Students are free to be themselves, ask tough questions, and wrestle with who God is and how knowing Him impacts their lives.
Retreat 56 is our annual retreat for 5th and 6th graders at Refreshing Mountain Camp in Stevens, PA. The dates for this year’s event are April 3-5. We'd love for every student to participate! Retreat 56 is a great time to build relationships with other 56ers and leaders, devote time to learning more about God and why following him matters, and to have a ton of fun!
"Having fun and spending quality time together is increasingly important as your relationship with your child changes."
Route 56 does not meet when there is a holiday weekend. Examples would be Labor Day, Memorial Day, or Easter. This is intentional. We want to be purposeful in having 56ers acclimate and connect in the main service as well as in their age-specific area. This offers students about 10 chances each year to hear Pastor Matt’s heart and to worship learn with the church together. This is a really big deal. Please encourage your 56er to go with an open heart and be ready for what God has for them! Enjoy!
Serving in Kids and Students Ministry is investing in both the present and future. Find your spot to serve and influence a generation!
