Living Water
Living Water is a part of our Middle School Ministries at SOLLC for 5th-7th grade students. In Living Water, students learn faith fundamentals, explore the Bible, and are encouraged to begin asking questions about their faith journey.
This is an exciting and interactive program filled with music, games, faith formation, and small groups. 300+ youth gather every Wednesday to learn and grow in their faith with peers and adult leaders. We encourage an open dialogue and provide a safe space for students to share.
As 8th graders, students participate in Affirmation of Baptism - a year-long experience that is a culmination of Middle School Ministry. In AOB, students take the faith basics they've learned the previous years and are asked to start applying them to their lives, begin to figure out what they believe, and look at how they fit into the wider church as they journey towards the Affirmation of Baptism service in May.
We hope that when each student enters the building, they feel welcomed and affirmed as the person they are and the person they are becoming. Every student has a place at God’s table – no exceptions.
