eFamily!

Youth 6th - 12th Grade

We are all about Jesus

Our Mission:
eFamily! exists to support parents to help students to KNOW Jesus through the teaching of the scriptures, to GROW in their relationship with Jesus through the application of the scriptures, and to SHOW Jesus to the people and communities around them through the sharing and modeling of the Gospel. We accomplish this mission through fun eFamily! events and age-and-stage ministry classes/gatherings. 

Youth – Middle & High School

REACTION (6th thru 8th grade) and CATALYST (9th thru 12+ grade) are the older sections of eFamily! We aim to help students appreciate how Jesus is relevant to our lives at any stage by addressing their distinct needs and questions. We also seek to equip parents to understand and communicate with their students by facilitating conversations and offering resources and support. Have questions or want more info? Reach out to Christie (REACTION – Middle School) at christie.marangi@ourelement.org or Kevin (CATALYST – High School) at kevin.kaub@ourelement.org.

The Hangout

All 6th-12th grade students are invited to join us (most) every Tuesday from 3:30pm – 5:30pm in the Element Barn for “The Hangout.” Come for some or all of the time and simply have fun with us. The Hangout gives teens a space to catch up with friends and youth leaders, play ping-pong or Nintendo Switch, learn a new card or board game, and overall build community together.
