CAMP RECAP ⛰️🔥

What. A. Week.

There were late nights, way too many snacks, team competitions, lake days, laughs that made our stomachs hurt, and memories we'll be talking about for years...

But the best part?

God moved.

Students worshiped with open hearts. Walls came down. Chains were broken. Prayers were answered. Some students made first-time decisions to follow Jesus. Others recommitted their lives to Him. Many walked away with a deeper understanding of who God is and who He says they are.

Our prayer before camp was simple:

"God, bring revelation."

And He did.

He revealed His love.
He revealed truth.
He revealed areas that needed healing.
He revealed purpose.
Most importantly, He revealed more of Himself.

To every student who came expecting something from God—thank you for saying "yes."

To every leader who poured into students, stayed up late, prayed faithfully, and loved so well—thank you. We couldn't do this without you.

And to everyone who prayed, gave, donated, and supported our students... this week is part of your story too. Your investment made an eternal difference.

Camp may be over...

But what God started isn't.

We're believing this was just the beginning.

❤️🔥

Hey Merge Students!

Summer is busy—we get it. Vacations, camps, sports, late nights, and sleeping until noon. 😆

But don't miss what God wants to do this summer.

For the next few weeks, we're turning the microphone over to YOU. Summer Sessions is all about the topics and questions that matter most to our students—and we need your help! Start submitting the questions you've always wondered about, the topics nobody talks about, or the things you're struggling to understand.

Each week, we'll choose a student-submitted topic, dive into God's Word, have real conversations, and discover what God has to say about it.

Your questions matter.
Your faith matters.
Your voice matters.

So start sending in those topics, invite a friend, and join us this week!

Let's make this a summer of growing closer to God—together. ☀️📖💙

Here's a glimpse inside MYM Wednesday nights!

✨ What If These Bible Stories Weren’t Just Stories? ✨
Over the last few weeks in Merge, we’ve been doing something a little different… We’ve been taking the “famous” people we grew up hearing about—Adam & Eve, Noah, Abraham, and Joseph—and looking at them not as flannel-graph characters… but as real humans with real struggles and real faith.

And honestly?
It’s changing the way our students read Scripture.

🌿 Adam & Eve weren’t just the first people.
They were the first humans to wrestle with temptation, regret, blame, shame… and the overwhelming kindness of a God who pursued them anyway.

🌧️ Noah wasn’t just the guy with the big boat.
He was a teenager once. A son. A man trying to follow God when literally everyone around him wasn’t. His story teaches what it looks like to stay faithful when it’s lonely.

⭐ Abraham wasn’t just a “father of nations.”
He doubted. He questioned. He messed up. He waited years for promises he barely understood. And still—God called him, led him, and used him.

🎯 Joseph wasn’t just the kid with the colorful coat.
He was betrayed, forgotten, misunderstood… and yet somehow, every setback became part of God’s setup. Joseph teaches us that the pit isn’t always your prison—sometimes it’s your pathway.

And here’s the coolest part:
Our students aren’t just learning stories—they’re recognizing themselves in these people. They’re realizing Scripture is full of people who felt what they feel…
…struggled how they struggle…
…and still found God right in the middle of it.

This series has opened the door for honest conversations, big questions, and moments where faith feels real and personal.
AND THE BEST PART --> We're just getting started!!

If you’ve got a student who’s searching, questioning, curious, or just trying to figure out life and faith—there is room for them here!
And we’re excited for what God is doing in them next!

🍽️ A HUGE THANK YOU to Our MERGE Meal Team! 🍽️

To every single person who has provided dinner for our students on Wednesday nights — THANK YOU. You may not realize it, but you are doing far more than dropping off spaghetti, tacos, or a tray of chicken nuggets.

You’re creating a place where students feel seen before they feel preached to.
You’re helping us build a space where real conversations happen — over full plates and full hearts.
You’re reminding teenagers that there is a church family cheering for them, loving them, and investing in their spiritual growth.

Your meals are ministry.
Your time is ministry.
Your generosity is ministry.

And it matters more than you know. 🙌
From the bottom of our hearts — thank you for feeding our kids physically so we can pour into them spiritually. You are part of every salvation, every breakthrough, every moment of growth happening at MERGE.

We could not do this without you. 💛 MMM (Merge Meal Minstry) ROCKS! We love your faces!!

🔥 MERGE HAS BEEN ON FIRE LATELY! 🔥
The last two weeks before Spring Break were something SPECIAL.

Our Youth Panel Night was absolutely incredible — our students showed up with real questions, real faith, and real courage. And then our Night of Worship … WOW. You could feel the hunger for Jesus in the room. These students are not tiptoeing around their faith anymore — they are diving in headfirst. They’re talking openly about Scripture, about right and wrong, about who Jesus is and who He’s calling them to be. 🙌

This group is different.
This group is family.
And the best part? Our family always has room to grow. 💛
If you or your student haven’t checked out MERGE yet… now is the PERFECT time.

➡️ Here’s what’s coming up:
✨ This week: Coach Mims will be joining us with an encouraging message you won’t want to miss.
✨ Next week: We kick off a brand-new 10-week series called Broken Heroes — a deep dive into how God uses imperfect people to tell His perfect story.

Each week we’ll explore a different person from the Bible — their life before God called them, what God did through them, and how their story continued afterward. Our students will be challenged and reminded that God can use them NOW, right where they are. You don’t have to be more mature, more “spiritual,” or have life all figured out.
God doesn’t always call the equipped… but He equips the called.

We’re growing. We’re learning. We’re stepping into purpose together.
And trust me — you’ll want to be part of what God is doing here.

💥 Middle & high school students: come sit with us. Bring a friend. Or bring five. You belong here. 💥

MYM Youth camp will be July 11th-14th! If you plan to attend, please have your $100 deposit turned in by March 1st!

2026 has been SO good to us already! 🙌 Our students just wrapped up our series “The Benefit of Doubt”, and wow… what a ride. They’re stepping into this year more confident in being honest with their questions, more brave in seeking out truth for themselves, and bolder than ever in declaring their love for Jesus. 🔥

This week, we’re hitting pause on our study to do something equally important — listen to each other. 💬✨
Join us February 25th for our Youth Panel Night, where YOUR peers will be answering YOUR questions. Come hear how students your age are navigating the same thoughts, struggles, and situations you face — and how their relationship with Jesus is keeping them grounded in a culture full of chaos.

And we’re not stopping there…
Next week, we’ll follow it up with a Night of Worship — a time to release, recuperate, and receive everything God wants to pour into you. 🤍

If you’ve been searching for a place to belong… a place of refuge and peace… or even just a place to meet Jesus — look no further.
MYM is here for you. ❤️

📍 Wednesday Nights
🍕 6:00 — Food
🎶 6:30 — Worship & Service

Bring a friend. Pack the auditorium. Grow in your relationship with Jesus. Let’s make 2026 one for the books. 🙌🔥
