Youth

(6th – 12th Grade)

Chase Gilbert

Student Minister - Midland Campus

We Are SGY

Stonegate Youth or SGY, is the ministry for grades 6–12.

SGY exists to help students experience a transforming relationship with Jesus, because we believe that Jesus completely transforms lives. We want students to connect with other students and adult mentors, to take steps of growth in their relationship with Jesus, and to equip them to live a life of influence everyday.

SGY happens every week both in Midland and Odessa.

SGY Schedule Change | FAQs

Why the change?

Wednesday night is a challenge for a lot of students, specifically in High School, with after-school commitments. While Wednesdays used to widely be considered a “Church night” and therefore kept open by many schools, that just isn’t the case anymore. We believe making the shift to Sunday nights will allow for more of our students to be able to attend which allows more students to hear the Gospel!

I have a student in High School AND Middle School. Does this mean multiple drop offs / pickups on Sundays?

Nope! We’ll have games and activities for our Middle School students during the High School service and the same for High School students during the Middle School service. This will allow families like yours to drop all students off and pick them up at the same time – and hopefully cut down on your drive times!

Why is High School meeting first and not Middle School?

We have multiple High School students who help lead Middle School small groups – how cool is that?! By having High School meet first, those who lead Middle School groups will have an opportunity to hear and discuss the lesson prior to the Middle School service, which we believe will make them more effective leaders.

How can parents get involved SGY?

We know for some parents, this new schedule offers more flexibility to be able to serve with us in SGY. We have multiple roles available such as Small Group Leaders, Greeters, Check In Team and more! If you’re interested in serving with us here in SGY, click here.
