Student Ministry

LOSM – Middle & High School

Welcome

Live Oak Student Ministry

LOSM, Live Oak Student Ministry, exists to make more and stronger teenage followers of Jesus Christ.

We meet most Wednesday evenings during the school year, and through worship, games, relevant teaching and an emphasis on grade and gender-based small groups, seek to meaningfully connect your student to Jesus.

Our schedule typcially looks like this:

6:00pm LOSMeal: we provide a light dinner for $3/student. Your child can decompress from the day, grab some food and connect with other students and their leaders.

6:30pm-8:00pm LOSM worship, games, teaching and small groups!

SERVE

Are you interested in serving with us at LOSM on Wednesday Nights in the Fall?
There are so many ways to serve and come along side your student as they journey through middle and high school. Let us know how you would like to serve here.

CONTRIBUTE TO OUR WEEKLY MEAL

If you want to contribute to our weekly “LOSMeal,” go here. If you contribute, your student eats free that week.

If you can’t contribute, no worries! Just send your student with $3.

OUR WHY

By the time your student graduates high school we want them to embrace and experience these truths:

-I am created to pursue an authentic relationship with my Creator and model this for others
-I belong to Jesus Christ and define who I am by what he says and what he says about me
-I exist every day to demonstrate God’s love to a broken world.

This is our strategy to connect with and build into students…

SMALL GROUPS…We believe that small groups are where we grow. That’s when we can unpack all we have been learning and what it means in our lives! This is where the magic happens! We offer age and gender based small groups on Wednesday nights. Small Group leaders facilitate meaningful conversation about how Jesus and Scripture intersects with real life now!

CONNECTIONS… Our goal is to know and care for your student…to know what’s going on in their lives. We want to come see them when they participate in extracurricular activities. We want to track with them during their week though texts and phone calls. For this to happen successfully we need to know when they have games, concerts, performances etc. Please send us their schedules!

INTERGENERATIONAL WORSHIP on SUNDAYS…We have learned that inter-generational worship can be catalytic to a student’s faith so we encourage our families to attend Sunday services and worship together!

CULTURE OF SERVING…We do not meet on Sunday mornings because many of our students are serving within the church. Statistics have shown that 7 out of 10 students leave the church and their faith when they go to college. However, it also shows that students who are serving and putting their faith into practice are more likely to maintain their faith when they leave for college. That’s what we are striving for!
