Junior High Ministry

If you're thinking to yourself... "Self, what is this Cross Culture business, I clicked on Junior High!"... Be confused no longer! Cross Culture is the name we use for the Junior High group at Camarillo Community Church. Therefore I guess you could call Camarillo Community Chruch Cross Culture "C to the fifth", or C5 (Five C's would be too much like the thing for little tikes). Anways, Cross Culture PM meets on Friday nights during the school year, with special events throughout the summer. Come to Cross Culture AM meets on Sundays at 9 AM.
We are doing a study based on the Wayne Cordeiro book, The Divine Mentor, learning from the Heroes in the Bible.

Fridays

Cross Culture PM meets on every Friday of the month from 7-9 PM. Students from grades 6-8 come for a time of games, snack, and teaching. We have exciting away events every month. We go to places like Magic Mountain, Lazer Star, Golf n' Stuff, ice skating and bowling. These nights offer a safe, fun environment for your kids to invite their friends.

Sundays

Cross Culture AM is on Sunday mornings at 9 AM. This is a time of fellowship,games, worship and relevant messages. The Cross Culture staff is dedicated to reaching these students, and impacting our community. We are currently looking for potential volunteers to serve in this ministry. Please contact Bryan Smith at bryan@camcc.net or at 482-2657, x119.

Youth Programming is divided into four distinct areas:

Outreach - which includes Cross Culture PM and other special events and camps throughout the year.
Junior High Worship Service - Every Sunday this provides a fun environement with games and relevant teaching and worship for the junior high student.
Awana (designed to provide a forum for accountability to the fundamental disciplines of the Christian life)
Camps/Retreats - designed to round off the overall programming with a forum for interpersonal growth and fellowship.

Our youth group exists as a place where young people can meet new friends and bring old friends to church in a totally non-threatening environment. They are designed as a place where young adults can evaluate the claims of Jesus Christ without judgment or prejudice. Our meetings combine great games, snacks, adventures and stimulating discussions of relevant issues facing students.

We seek to develop young adults from their point of entry to fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ as the overriding purpose of our student ministries. This is accomplished through a coordinated ministry approach which focuses on instilling the values of personal evangelism, discipleship, fellowship, serving and worship.
