Retreats
Winter Retreat
Let’s face it, winter in Minnesota is COLD! We do our best to beat the winter blues by heading to a camp for some wintertime enjoyment! This retreat is hosted by our senior class, which means they will run games, lead worship, share testimonies, and be the primary speakers for the weekend. You can bet that the weekend will not be one you want to miss out on! Our primary tradition at this retreat is the annual Lip Sync Competition! This is open to anyone who wants to compete, so start putting a group together and rehearsing your choreography, the retreat will be here before you know it!
Foundations
The Student Ministries vision is to bring, stir, equip, and send students. Part of our strategy for accomplishing our vision is by offering Foundations for senior students. Foundations can be broken into three parts: monthly Sunday meetings, involvement in NXT, and the concluding trip to Israel (optional for all students who complete Foundations).
Notes:
- Foundations begins October 3, 2021 for the class of 2022! Registration is not yet open.
- Questions: Contact Laura Buchelt at or 952-224-3054.
Compass
Compass is a public school ministry of Grace Church. Our mission is to connect, equip, and encourage the Christian community within our public schools.
The Goals of Compass
- Connect the Christian public school community at both school and district levels as well as corporately throughout the metro and beyond.
- Equip educators, parents, and students to understand and live out their religious liberties as Christians within the public schools.
- Support efforts to bring God's Word into our public schools through student-led Bible studies and Good News Clubs.
- Equip Christian educators and parents through workshops and seminars on relevant topics.
- Build strong relationships between church and school, showing Christ's love by meeting our schools' most basic needs.
- Work in partnership with other Christian organizations and ministries serving within our public schools.
- Pray faithfully for our schools and those within these walls.
- Share the vision of public school ministry and encourage churches to intentionally support this mission field.
