Big Buddies

    Big Buddies from the Middle School came to spend some time with their Little Buddies in the class. The older students helped with literacy stations, giving encouragement and setting a good example for the younger students. The kindergartners enjoyed the extra attention, and the Middle School girls were happy to serve as role models.

This group of fifth grade girls was especially excited because this is their first opportunity to be Big Buddies. When they were in the Elementary Division, they were the Little Buddies. Discipleship is God's design for the body of Christ; God intends for Christians to develop relationships with younger (or newer) believers, who will in turn grow in their faith and disciple other believers.

In Second Timothy 2:2, Paul instructs Timothy: "And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witness entrust to reliable men who will also be qualified to teach others."
