Discipleship ... Most of what I have learned in my life has come from older youth or leaders at SHBC. The methods of discipleship that are used here influence everyone.

Launch ... to Know God

Six-week discipleship strategy designed for students to be discipled by adults for the purpose of spiritual growth and discipling younger students. During Launch, adults and high school students will meet for one hour for 6 weeks to learn the disipline of discipleship and study. Then, in the 2nd hour, the high school students will meet with jr high students and model for them what they have learned. During this phase, high school students will be discipled and learn to disciple others. After the 6 weeks, students can continue to meet with their Launch Leaders at their own discretion.

Launch will return on February 13 2011!

Adults, please go here to become an adult Launch Specialist. Students, please click here to sign up for Launch. Training will occur Feb 9.

Adults meet with high school students (grade 9-12) – 1:00-2:00pm
High school students meet with Junior High Students (grade 6-8) – 2:15-3:00pm (two adults will supervise)
