How to Keep it going after camp.  Here are some thoughts:

 

  1. Time replacement - Our usual evening consists of T.V., Internet, ball fields, or just being out and about.  At camp that time is replaced with  worship.  Think about how many hours you spent singing, praying and listening to Bible teachers.  Your time with God was multiplied.  To keep it going, take a couple of nights and worship at home.  Sing along with Christian CD’s, read scripture, go through a personal or family Bible study, or get a tape of a good sermon and listen to it.  Time alone with God seeking Him with all of your heart = Closeness to God.

  2. Don’t miss Church - We are all busy and our schedules are full, so many opportunities will come up for your attention.  Sometimes you have to say “No” to good things in order to say “Yes” to the best things.  Church is where we gather to worship God corporately.  Also it may be the only time that day that you can truly slow down and spend time with God.

  3. Personal time with God and your attitude - The first two suggestions should not replace your daily personal time with God.  If you are not spending time in prayer, Bible reading and scripture memorization, you will not be where God wants you to be Spiritually.

A word to Parents/Adults

 

Successful Student Ministry relies on parents and adults willing to invest in the events and activities. There are many opportunities to serve in our student ministry. We always need teachers, chaperons, hostesses, resource people, financiers, and Christian examples. Our student ministry will only be as strong as the adult participation. We really need to work toward the goal of every member being a minister. Our students need you.

 

Permission/Medical/Discipline Form

 

Every student should have a form on file. These forms allow young people to be treated by proper medical personnel in case of an emergency. In all cases, parents will be notified as soon as possible. These forms must be notarized and are required for any activity away from church. This form also has a discipline covenant included in the permission section. Because we are responsible for your student during our activities, it is imperative that they follow instructions and obey chaperons at all times.

 

Scholarships

 

Please, never let money be the reason your student cannot participate in our ministry. Some money is available to help with the expenses of ministry events and activities. We also give a discount to families with more than one student wanting to participate. Please do not hesitate to ask about available scholarships for our events and activities. When paying for a church event, please make your check to First Baptist Church. If you are paying with cash, please put the money in a sealed envelope and write the event and amount on the outside.
