CFTROU 0121: Regathering During COVID-19: Student Ministry

Doing life together in community is important to our church family. During the pandemic, there’s an even greater appetite for this, during this season of social distancing. Joining us on this episode are Tyler Core, Pastor to Students and Families, and Garrett Haywood, Minister to Middle School Students. They lead our Student Ministry and join us to discuss our regathering strategy, as it impacts our students and their families.
Key Points:
  • The vision behind our new programs and the strategy behind Midweek Mashup. Here’s a link to our YouTube playlist where you can find our latest episodes.
  • How student engagement has fluctuated over the past few years at our church and how our programming strategy has shifted to overcome this.
  • What Tyler and Garrett have learned in this season.
  • How our programming communicates serve opportunities and helping students find their purpose in Jesus.
  • Lessons Garrett and Tyler would like to share with others and carry forward.
  • How they have grown our college ministry.
