Student Ministries
- What does the Rocky Mountain District offer to Youth Pastors and Youth Leaders?
- We seek to provide resources and training to our district churches and their leaders through the following means:
- Youth Leader Network Gatherings
- The second Thursday of the month, youth leaders gather in person at Calvary Bible Church in Thornton. We share helpful tools, read God's Word, and have a chance to connect in groups to discuss ministry or life needs.
There is a similar online meeting the third Thursday of the month. Youth leaders from three states join in for support, training, and encouragement. - Youth Retreats
- The district hosts 2 youth retreats every year. In the fall, a high school retreat is held at Crooked Creek Camp near Winter Park, CO. This is a weekend to worship God through His creation, music, the Bible, and relationships. It is a pivotal time to help high school ministries build strong relationships between students and leaders at the beginning of the year.
The middle school retreat "Wntr Wknd" occurs in February when we give middle schoolers an opportunity to follow Jesus and be His disciple who then makes disciples. - Resources for Youth Leaders
- The district seeks to make churches aware of resources from EFCA National Office.
- Prayer Support and Counsel
- Any youth leader who needs prayer or counsel can reach out to the district for help. Many times, an outside perspective can be helpful.
