JAMs Ministry (6th, 7th, and 8th grade) seeks to build community among middle school youth while providing opportunity for spiritual growth. JAMs youth participate in fellowship fun activities, servant events, and attend the Youth Quake in Baltimore each year. Parents serve as chaperones, drivers, and Bible study leaders. JAMs celebrate FUNtastic Friday Nights, help with Koinonia Baskets and the Leaf Raking Servant Saturday in November, lock-ins, and much more.
