What is Girls' Ministries?
Girls' Ministries, formerly known as Missionettes, is a ministry within the church that introduces girls to Jesus Christ and to train them to follow Him. It's a place where girls can invite their friends and gather with others who love God.
This is a fun program for girls. Classes are held on Wednesday evenings at 7 PM in the Learning Center. Spring First has six clubs which include:
 |
Rainbows Club is for preschool children ages three and up
|
 |
Daisies: The Sonshine Club for kindergarten girls
|
 |
Prims: The Discovery Club is for first and second grade girls
|
 |
Stars Club is for third through fifth grade girls
|
 |
Friends Club is for sixth through eighth grade girls
|
|
Girls Only (at this time we do not offer this club)
|
There is a Girls' Ministries club for every girl! Each club has different and fun ways to help girls make Jesus the center of their lives. It's fun to be a Missionette!
What is the purpose of Girls' Ministries?
The purpose of Girls' Ministries has eternal value and is explained in a fivefold purpose statement, which reads:
- Winning girls to Jesus Christ through love and acceptance
- Teaching girls to obey everything Jesus commanded us-helping girls to develop spiritually and mentally
- Providing encouragement, support, and accountability through lasting Christian relationships
- Providing an environment for girls to develop their gifts and abilities
- Acquainting girls with the Great Commission of Jesus Christ our Lord
Curriculum: A four to six week series of lessons covering one topic, including a memory verse, central truth, and clubroom discoveries (a unit completed earns one badge, pendant charm, or pin, depending on the club level)
