For Parents

There are amazing things going on in our middle school ministry! We have a great team of adults who love middle school students and want to build relationships and walk with them as they get to know Jesus better. Our programs are intentionally simple and uncluttered to make what we do excellent, focused and effective. We want to come alongside parents as a resource to help discipleship become a reality in the home.

Here are some ideas on how to help your child connect:

  • take advantage of special events throughout the year
  • encourage your student to invite their friends
  • serve as an MSM volunteer
  • make MSM a weekly priority
  • utilize our student ministry website to stay updated

Interested in volunteering?

MSM (Middle School Ministry) at Lakeside is all about CONNECTING… student to student, student to leader, and student to God. We provide multiple environments to reach up to God, reach in to other MSM students, and reach out to more students throughout our community. If you are interested in serving with MSM, contact Jaimie Major or Maureen Carter, the Student Ministry Administrative Assistants: (916)985-3245, maureencarter@lakesidechurch.com, and jaimiemajor@lakesidechurch.com.
