MIDDLE SCHOOL MINISTRY

Helping Middle School students know Christ and make Christ known!

At Red Hill Lutheran Church & School, we believe that middle school is a crucial and integral part of a student's faith journey. We want to facilitate a place where students can grow, build meaningful relationships, and truly get to know Jesus for themselves!


Please see below for our weekly gatherings, upcoming events, and other information that may help you and your family!

    Midweek Teaching Series For August

    Sometimes the idea of "faith" can feel a little mysterious and hard to grasp. After all, what is it? And how do you get it — or get more of it? Well, just like science can explain so many of the mysterious and hard-to-grasp things in the world around us, there are answers for many of the mysterious and hard-to-grasp things about faith, too. You'll learn in science class that "catalysts" are interactions that create big changes and transformations. In the same way, Scripture shows us certain change-making "catalysts" are necessary for the transformation of our faith and the faith of others.

    In this four-week series from Hebrews, we'll discover that faith is a catalyst for action, the faith of others can be a catalyst on our journey, Jesus is the catalyst for a new relationship with God, and we can be a catalyst for change.

    It is a joy and an honor to support and equip entire families through all stages of life. To help in that journey, we offer a Family Resource Library filled with books covering every developmental phase—from birth through college—as well as a wide range of other topics.
