What is it and why do we have it? Club 45 is a new ministry for preteens in 4th and 5th grades. It is designed to meet the changing needs of this group of youth who often hunger for something different from younger children, but they are not developmentally ready for Youth Ministries. Club 45 helps to bridge the gap that preteens feel as they transition from their elementary to teenage years, by using a format similar to youth programs, but with subject matter and activities that address their age appropriate needs and issues. In order to best meet those needs, Club 45 is designed as a holistic ministry, including Sunday school, Preteen Youth Fellowship and Special Events, providing youth a place to experience their faith and their church community in a fuller, deeper and more meaningful way.
