Handing Off 8th Grade Students

Published: July 19, 2021, 2:03 p.m.

Tim Nowell, the high school pastor I get to work with every week, sits down with me to talk about moving up 8th grade students to the high school ministry. He\u2019s a thirteen-year veteran at Wayside Chapel and we have a strategy. Mostly.

\u2022We have a conversation about each student by talking through a list.
\u2022We highlight who will show up, who was involved, and who we\u2019ve never seen.
\u2022Leaders loving students for years.
\u2022Welcoming incoming students into the high school ministry the week before promotion with a \u201cFish Fry\u201d (Grilling freshman with questions and addressing their fears).
