Come yelling, screaming, & getting crazy with lots of jr. highers.  We play some of the most intense recreation games.  We usually have an off-the-wall stage game.  You are not going to want to miss one night.  This is a great chance to hang out with your friends and hear a totally relevant talk.  And remember, no matter what, BARF (bring a real friend). We meet every other Friday night during the school year from 6:45-9pm.

 
If you have a heart for the Lord and want to grow deeper and serve Him in a tangible way, then you belong on the CREW Servant Team. Our goal is to serve the junior high ministry through prayer, worship, setting up for events and whatever it takes to reach your friends for Jesus. We’re going to have a blast as we grow in our spiritual S.H.A.P.E through Christ and are challenged in many other ways! We meet approximately every 3rd week this school year. This is open to all, but an application is required to join! If you are interested in CREW please talk to Steve, Johanna or Dan. 

 
Awana Trek takes a three-tiered approach by offering something that meets a variety of interests.  1) a feature event uses games and activities to attract unsaved friends of students and make them feal at home; 2) large group time communicates a single Bible truth relevant to the students' lives; and 3) students are then organized into small groups accoring to their spiritual lives. Trek is heavy on Bible memory and is a great small group for those who are very comfortable with the Awana format and philosophy of ministry.  For more general Trek info visit the Awana website at www.awana.org/about/default.aspx?id=151 

 
What a great way to spend your Sunday Morning! Join our staff and 100 other fellow junior highers for awesome worship, dynamic Bible teaching and prayer and the strangest openers, plus more! There is no other place in the Universe that could make Sunday Morning this great! Only First Baptist Church. Join us in the Junior High Room (E-108) on Sundays at 9:30 am. We’ll be waiting for you!

 
 
A small group of same sex students meeting regularly for the purpose of caring, praying, and establishing them in understanding and living God’s Word. A small group leader is the mentor, role model, friend, and confidant to the students. They are seen as a lay pastor shepherding their group. Students should be caring, connecting, and committed to one another and their friends. Each group should have 6-10 students. Small groups are the relational bridge and follow-up for new Christians.

Our Wild T Groups meet every other week on Friday night. We start at 6:45 with some great hang out time, then we gather for some large group time before breaking up into our groups. To join a group contact us or show up at Wild T Night and we will get you connected.
