Equipping students to become lifelong followers of Jesus

Sunday Gathering

Our Middle School Gathering is every Sunday morning at 11:30! We meet in the Family Life Center for a time of connection, digging into God's Word, worship and focused discussion. Our goal is to help students establish their faith and place within the Church. Enter the Family Life Center by going down the stairway near the Kids Check-In area. Find us at the Middle School Check-In desk! For pick-up, enter the Family Life Center the same way.

Sunday Series
The Gospel

This fall, students will join adults in Forum's "The Gospel" series (Sept. 13-Oct. 25). In this series, the goal is to help students break through any confusion about what the gospel is and instead know it with confidence. Here's what we want our students to believe in their hearts, display in their lives, and share with others: the gospel changes everything. 

"But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners... So now we can rejoice in our wonderful new relationship with God because our Lord Jesus Christ has made us friends of God." - Romans 5:8, 11.

Middle School Community Groups

At an age where everything around them seems to be constantly changing, Community Groups provide a consistency in students' lives that we believe could have an eternal impact. Community Groups meet every Wednesday during the school year from 6:30–8:00 PM at Forum. Groups are organized by grade & gender to help students grow in their faith, build lasting friendships, & study the Bible together. Each semester also includes one service project & one fun event. 

Watch for weekly updates from your group leader on GroupMe. 

We will kick this year off on Wednesday, August 26, in the Forum auditorium for a worship night! Parents: you're invited to come worship alongside and attend a parent meeting!

Personalized Bibles

Middle School is the time to make faith your own. We want to equip your student to read God's Word, and it starts with knowing God is accessible. That's why we want to give your student their own NLT Study Bible with their name on it. On the first Sunday of each month, take a look at all the Bibles set up near the Middle School check-in desk in the FLC. Then we’ll get to work on personalizing your Bible!

Level Path Ministry

Forum's Level Path Ministry is designed to help children with special needs participate in the Sunday Morning gathering. If you have a child(s) with special needs, we invite you to learn more about the Level Path Ministry.
