7th-8th Grades: ZOE
ZOE meets every Monday until May 7th    The snow policy for ZOE is that if the Edmonds School District closes for bad weather, ZOE doesn’t meet too that day.

​ZOE is for students in grades 7 & 8 and it begins at 7:00 pm and runs until 8:30 pm.   It is a mixture of fun games and competitions led by high school students who are the coaches for the teams.  There is a teaching time each week and then we end with small groups.   This year’s teaching will focus on the Old Testament and the Ten Commandments.

Note from Pastor Hector.

Dear NET and ZOE students’ parents,
It has been a month since we met.  I can’t believe it.
Based on our conversation regarding your availability to meet, and after checking with David, these are the dates that I would like to propose for us to meet:

NET
Dec 8  - Joy
Jan 12 - Hospitality
Feb 9  - Love
Mar 8  - Storms in family

ZOE​
Jan 13 - Transfiguration
Mar  9 - Judas and the Betrayal

As I mentioned before the purpose of the gatherings are:
  • Spend time together, accompany one another
  • Deepen our faith
  • Pray, reflect on the topics your children are studying
  • Connect, create a space for mutual support, care, and spiritual growth, and to be nurtured as parents by deepening or starting relationships
By doing so, the hope desired future is:
  • A place where we can belong and become disciple makers of other generations behind us
  • New leaders who will lead the group
  • Spiritual growth
  • New spiritual ways to connect with children and with your communities
We will meet in Room 201.
I will have the list of topics through the year as you had requested it.  And, I am looking forward to seeing you on Dec 8.    Please let me know if you have any questions.
