J12 | Tweens Ministry 4th - 6th Grade

J12 is based on Jesus at the age of 12. We believe His testimony at that young age is the template for a generation of young people today. He was found in the temple, listening and asking questions. When He left He became subject to His parents and grew in wisdom, stature and favor with God and with man. He is our example.

We at NorthGate believe that God wants to do something new with our tweens. God wants to challenge them, stretch them, and prepare them for what the future has in store. The NorthGate J12 leaders are committed to this process and want to partner with the parents of these kids. We are excited to watch God transform their lives trough this amazing new program. We want the kids of NorthGate's family to say, “I must be about My Fathers business!”
