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
Our 7th & 8th Graders enjoyed our third evening of hearing from Pastor Lindy as she shared a little about boundaries and what they mean in the life of a middle schooler. We focused on boundaries when it comes to our friendships and dating.
Our 6th Graders along with their parents gathered for Milestones to talk through the truths of Middle School.
SUNDAY SEEDS
We talked about Jesus calming the storm and how we are not promised that there won’t be storms in our lives when we follow Jesus, but he will always be there for us.

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.
