Have you told us about your kids yet?
Please share a little info about your Middle Schooler with us. I promise it’s worth the time it takes to fill it out for a few reasons:
- We get to know your Middle Schooler a little better
- You get to stay connected with these super fun newsletters (& get the quick links to register for events!)
- Help us plan for a great year!
- It’s FREE! That’s right! We think registering them and their involvement in Sundays and Wednesdays should just be part of being a “WCC kid!”

Last weeks Happenings:
WEDNESDAY CROSSROADS
We got to hear a message from Lindy about boundaries and what they mean in the life of a middle schooler. How do we learn to grey and make our decisions healthy?
SUNDAY SEEDS
We talked about Jesus healing a man that had been sitting at the side of a pool for 38 years waiting to be healed and Jesus healed him on the Sabbath!!! We talked about how we can miss seeing God in our lives or being part of God’s works if we are so worried about sticking to the way we’ve always done things.

Where’s CBW?
I LOVE SEEING WHAT MIDDLE SCHOOLERS ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT OUTSIDE OF WCC but getting their event schedule is pretty challenging sometimes! I need your help, please let me know about your middle schooler’s events (THINK PLAYS, GAMES, MUSICAL PERFORMANCES, SHOWS, SCHOLAR COMPETITIONS, ETC!)
Here’s how you can let me know about upcoming dates:
- Put a note in the Where’s CBW Mailbox in the Middle School Corner at WCC OR
- Fill out this quick 5 questions request to let me know when and where to go.
Thanks for letting me know! I try my best to make it to their events when I know about them.
