Student Leaders

Student Leaders - Peer Ministry Trained

Developing caring & listening skills to be a better friend!

Permission Slip 2021-22

  • Peer Ministers develop listening skills, befriending skills and communication skills.
  • Peer Ministry trained students may serve as Student Leaders, Confirmation Co-Guides and other various student leadership roles.
  • All Peer Ministers will be equipped to be better friends!
  • Peer Ministry consists of three elements:
    1. Quality training in caring skills. 
    2. Commitment to growth in faith and values.
    3. Christian Service to other people.

9th Grade Students are invited to:

  • Pray! Is God calling you to be a Student Leader at Immanuel?
  • Student Leader Application Form (to let us know that you would like to be a Student Leader!). Please submit this by July 1st!
  • Training for new Student Leaders will take place on a Saturday in August.
  • Read through the Student Leader Information - with important dates, details and expectations.

Peer Ministry trained students develop listening and caring skills to use with peers, at school, with their family, in the community and at church. Student Leaders may also serve at Immanuel in a variety of ways:

Tech Team: Video & Still photography, video editing, creating slide shows, networking Kingdom.com. Participate in Confirmation opening, retreats, lock-ins and events to capture video and stills.

Program Team - Areas of Ministry: Present skits/dramas in confirmation, Stepping Stones, and occasional worship services. Create and present announcements at Confirmation. Lead songs and actions. Promote and recruit for events and activities. Participate in Confirmation opening, retreats, lock-ins and events, prepare for the following week’s activities.

Small Groups - Areas of Ministry: Participate in Confirmation small group leadership and discussion. Active involvement in Confirmation opening (meeting and greeting middle school students - not huddling in groups with other Peer Ministers). Participate in Confirmation opening, retreats, lock-ins, and events to develop relationships with students.

Holy Commotion - Areas of Ministry: Students in grades 10-12 with gifts of music and leadership form the leadership team of our youth worship band, Holy Commotion. These Student Leaders care for, support and mentor younger students and are attentive to the spiritual leadership of the group. They work closely with the adult leaders in the development of a strong and vibrant worship leadership team.
