GHJC Youth Discipleship Program Mission Statement “Identity in Christ Circle”
Our youth discipleship program is a faith-driven, scripture-centered initiative dedicated to guiding preteens and teenagers in their spiritual growth and personal development. We recognize that our youth is uniquely created with divine purpose, and we are committed to meeting them where they are offering mentorship, encouragement, and biblical truth to strengthen their faith and character.
Our mission is to:
- Lead young people in discovering their identity in Christ
- Equip them with biblical wisdom to navigate life’s challenges
- Strengthen their prayer life and personal relationship with God
- Foster a supportive, faith-filled community through mentorship and fellowship
- Empower them to walk confidently in their God-given purpose
Inspired by Luke 15:4, which illustrates Christ’s pursuit of the one, we are devoted to guiding, equipping, and encouraging the next generation to become Christ-centered leaders who live out their faith with integrity, compassion, and purpose.
Disclaimer: The Girls’ Discipleship Circle is not a counseling or therapy group. Our facilitators are volunteers who provide mentorship, biblical encouragement, and spiritual guidance. If your daughter needs professional counseling, we encourage you to seek support from a licensed counselor or therapist.
Partnering with the Parents
At GHJC Ministry, the Girls’ Discipleship Circle, we recognize the vital role that parents play in their daughter’s spiritual development. Our mission is to partner with families by providing a faith-based, scripture-centered environment where young girls can grow in their relationship with Christ while being supported by both their mentors and their families.
Our Commitment to the Parents
We believe that true discipleship is most effective when it is reinforced at home. To support you in this journey, we offer:
- Clear and Consistent Communication – Parents will receive regular updates on what their daughters are learning and how they are growing in faith.
- Faith-Based Resources – We provide materials and discussion points to encourage meaningful conversations and spiritual growth within the home.
- Opportunities for Engagement – Parents will have the opportunity to participate through optional check-in sessions, prayer partnerships, and additional resources to support their daughter’s discipleship journey.
Encouraging Faith Beyond the Circle:
We encourage parents to actively engage in their daughter’s spiritual development by:
- Asking questions about each session and discussing key takeaways.
- Praying with and for their daughter as she navigates her faith journey.
- Encouraging her to apply biblical principles in everyday life.
Together, we can create a strong foundation of faith, confidence, and purpose for the next generation of young women.
