Student Ministry Philosophy
The name “Upper Room Student Ministry” comes out of Acts 1. Jesus instructed the disciples to stay in Jerusalem until they received the power of the Holy Spirit. During this time, they stayed in the upper room. This was a time of preparation where they spent time meditating on the teachings of Scripture and “devoting themselves to prayer” before they were sent out into the world with the message of the gospel (Acts 1:13-14).
In many ways, the time of middle school and high school is a similar time of preparation before going out into the world, whether in college or the workplace. We want to steward this time of preparation and help equip our students to be able to continue follow Jesus and grow in their walks with Him, so they can take the gospel into the world.
