What: A weekly scheduled program for all junior high (Gr. 6-8) students that includes games, various activities, snacks, and a bible study together. There are also various retreats throughout the year.
When: Thursday nights, 6:30-8:30pm
Where: 54 Benton Street, Kitchener
Why: To journey with junior high students in their walk with God. In Ignite Youth we will develop a foundation for students in their knowledge of Jesus and walk with students as they are ignited to go into their schools, communities, etc. as his ambassadors.
Goals for Ignite Youth
Ignite will be a safe environment for students in Grades 6-8 every Thursday evening. This will be done through weekly events at 54 Benton that provide a space where students feel loved, valued, can learn, and have a ton of fun
Ignite will provide a space for students to ask questions and explore aspects of their faith during weekly small group times, and 1 on 1 mentoring time with leaders once per week
Ignite will help in “igniting” a spiritual fire in the lives of students, by weekly Bible study, and will send students out each week with a deeper understanding of their purpose and how God will use them to glorify Him
Ignite will train students to be equipped to go into their schools and communities as Jesus’ ambassadors. This will be done through service projects once every two months, bible studies training them how to share the gospel, and weekly teaching about living a life that reflects the Good news of the Gospel. This is the goal as students transition after grade 8 and into high school.
