2022 Confirmation

LifeBridge is going to be starting a “Confirmation Class” for those in 6th-8th grades (approximately ages 11-14).

Confirmation classes are a right of passage that helps our youth:

  1. grow in their relationship with Jesus and faith in Him,
  2. learn the basics of the Christian Faith,
  3. confirm their Faith to the Church,
  4. let’s the Church celebrate them, and
  5. allows them to become voting members of LifeBridge.

If you are a youth (or have a youth) who fits this age range and this is their desire, we would love to have him or her join us for these classes!

Our usual meeting dates and times will be on Wednesday nights during the SURGE small group times.

We will have our first informational meeting on Wednesday, October 19, 2022, during the SURGE small group time.

If you have any questions or comments, please let me know. You can reach me at this email address or on my cell at (713) 965-6761.

Thank you, God bless, and I hope to see you and/or your youth on October 19!

In joyful anticipation,
Pastor Scott

“See Ya After the Pole” Event — IMPACT Student Worship

August 31, 2022

Dear Pastor/Ministry Leader,

My name is Bryan Martisek and I (along with my wife, Haley) am the owner of Scoops & Scholars Ice Cream shop here in Sealy, TX. You may have seen or heard about the recent Student Worship Nights we have been hosting at our shop.

My wife and I are both believers in Jesus Christ, and have past experience working with students in various different ways (church youth programs, summer camps, teaching in schools, etc). We were hearing from the students who came into our shop that they were looking for more resources in their faith journey and we knew we had to do something, but weren’t sure what.

That’s where the Student Worship Nights came into the picture! We had access to a neutral space and we had connections to various ministry leaders from our days serving in youth while living down the road in Katy. It didn’t take long to make a few phone calls, connect with some local youth pastors, and BOOM we were off to hosting Student Worship Nights!

Now that you have a high-level view of the backstory, I would like to share with you the intent of this letter…

1. WE WANT TO ASK FOR YOUR PRAYER.

We believe God is moving within the student population of Sealy. Students are desiring to learn more about the Bible, they are longing for corporate worship, and they are looking for ways to serve and live out the Gospel. We believe He is stirring the hearts of this generation for Him, and as faith leaders in the community, we covet your partnership in praying for these young people as they pursue relationships with Christ.

2. WE WANT TO INVITE YOU TO JOIN US.

As I mentioned previously, we host Student Worship Nights once a month on Sunday evenings at our ice cream shop. This September 28, we will be breaking from our Sunday Night routine to coincide with the annual SEE YOU AT THE POLE day. Students will be gathering at their school flagpoles in the morning to pray for their classmates, friends, teachers, administration, and leaders, and then they will be invited to come worship corporately in the parking lot of TIGER STADIUM for a “Saw You At The Pole” rally.

(Details of the event are included on the poster below.)

If you have youth (or a youth group) in your church, we would love to have them join us. This is a free event being paid for by private donors, so your church will not be asked to contribute financially! Our heart is to provide more resources and opportunities for students, student pastors, and student ministries.

A copy of our event poster, as well as a 28-Day prayer calendar leading up to our September Worship Night is below. Should you have any questions about this event, our Worship Nights in general, how you can get involved, how you can get more event posters, or even about what flavor of ice cream we may have in the shop, please do not hesitate to reach out to me. Thank you again for your time, efforts, and commitment to your calling!

For King & Kingdom,

Bryan Martisek

Youth Mental Health First Aid

Youth are treasures – and their mental health is vital!

On September 13, 2022, from 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM, Bellville Juvenile Probation is providing a FREE certification for youth mental health first aid. (Breakfast and lunch provided!)

The class includes:

  • how to identify youth who are in crisis or at risk of being in crisis
  • how to handle these situations, and
  • who to call

On September 14 from 8:00 AM – Noon, Bellville Juvenile Probation in partnership with Austin County EMS, will be doing First Aid and CPR training.
The charge is $25.00 per person.

Registration (first and last name) is needed by Friday, August 5, for certificates for both the Youth Mental Health First Aid and First Aid and CPR classes.

CONTACT: Kortney Estep, Juvenile Probation Officer, at kestep@austincounty.com to register and with any question.

Come to either – or BOTH!

CYBER SAFETY: Child Trafficking and Sexual Exploitation

PARENTS and OTHER ADULTS: Join us for a presentation on what to watch for with your kids and the Internet. 

There are so many things we did not have to deal with when we were growing up and parenting these things is tough. Sgt. Amy Gonzales (Office of the Texas Attorney General, Criminal Investigations Division, Child Exploitation Unity, Southern Texas ICAC Task Force) does a great presentation. 

Any adults are welcome!

Gone Fishing

Fishing is one of the easiest and hardest things to do. 

It can look like you’re just sitting there, but there is an art or science to becoming a great fisherman. 

Join us Wednesday evening and explore what it means to become a ‘fisher of men’.

REDEEM the SCREEN

In a culture with screens on every corner and in the palm of every hand, we need to have an honest conversation about what it actually means to live in, but not of the ever-changing world of technology.

Make no mistake about it, the way we spend our screen time is a clear indicator of what we are following.

So rather than copying the behaviors of the world, we want to utilize our screen time in a way that intentionally transforms our minds and lives to look more like Jesus.

Join us, sixth through tenth graders for this great “REDEEM the SCREEN” study by Kyle Idleman.

SURGE — In COMMUNITY

The Greatest Commandment, and Second Greatest Commandment, tell us to love God and love others; that’s relationship. We are not meant to live this life alone. We are meant to live in community. 

This series reinforces this need in the lives of students. Each week encourages teens to surround themselves with other believers and to make a positive contribution to their communities.
