The Way Christian Youth Ministry is so grateful to those Churches, Christian owned businesses and individual Christians who have covenanted to bring food on a regular basis (most once each month) to feed an average of 75-80 students each day or APPROXIMATELY 10,000 MEALS EACH SCHOOL YEAR!! Approximately 25 different entities bring food each month. For most of our "hungry teens" (the terms go together 🙂) it is a substantial snack after a long afternoon since eating lunch. For some of our students, it is their evening meal. Matthew 25.We thank the LORD for the kindness of our food providers and especially for those who are able to stay and serve food and, in some cases, play bingo and other games with students, build relationships and share the love of CHRIST in word and deed. If your Church is not currently partnering with The Way, we would be honored to serve our SAVIOR with you. The Way is their ministry field as well as ours.Thanks also for Sister Nell Weer, The Way's "Meal Coordinator", for coordinating with each food provider and The Way volunteers to make this ministry successful. Thanks also to Marsha Petro, Martha Davis, Kathy Gibson and others for having the kitchen and supplies ready each day for our sponsoring Churches.Below are just a few of the Churches and organizations who provide for the needs of our students, who are also their neighbors, friends, fellow Trigg Countians and our future. Sorry to not have pictures of all but will endeavor to do so over the course of the school year. ... See MoreSee Less

Time for The Way's Semi-Annual Yard Sale and also Pancake Breakfast. HUMBLY ASK YOUR HELP----Pray----Please ask your Churches to let congregations know about the yard sale and encourage them to donate items.

We will start setting up for the sale when The Way closes at 5:30 PM Thursday October 5th.

We will work until about 9 to display and arrange as much as possible and then start back at about 10 Friday Morning and work until finished. Obviously need some people Saturday Morning and again at 1 PM, especially men, when we load the trailer. There will be pizza and other items in the kitchen at all times to keep us going.

REASONS ADDITIONAL BUILDING NEEDED --- Two classrooms for Christian growth and secular/job training which will be available for use 3-4 days per week, instead of only being able to effectively do training in the main building on Wednesdays (due to distractions when 90 students there).---Christian and uplifting movies every week or two.---Designated nights for High School students to be together without Middle Schoolers.---Quiet spaces (including Library) for students who want to read or desire a quieter environment.---At least two 6-7 week after school Bible Schools (VBS) per school year for 4th and 5th graders not eligible to attend The Way.

The Teen Clothes Closet "vision" PLUS became a reality in October 2022 and since then the School and The Way have worked to make almost ½ of the building into a beautiful and welcoming area for students to shop from hundreds of teen appropriate clothing items. Last school year was a great start for the clothes closet. This school year is already shaping up to be even better with The Way as sole operator and under the leadership of Sister Ramona Alexandar and her great team including Ann Burnam, Dale Beverly, Joan Heckmann, Tammy Mason, and Susan Utter has already given out several hundred clothing items ---from girl's tennis shoes to boy's dress shirts for Middle School Homecoming. They also now stock hygiene items as well. Recently one young lady was so excited to "have her very own deodorant". They are still open on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but later (until 5 PM) and on the 3rd Saturday Morning of each month when Cadiz Baptist's Simple Blessings Ministry is operational. BEST OF ALL, one young lady made a profession of faith in CHRIST JESUS after talking with Volunteers. ... See MoreSee Less

The Way's first (almost) monthly Friday Ministry Night was a Great success!!! Denise Young, our own Volunteer and Trigg School's College and Career Counselor, shared with 36 students about her summer mission trip to Brazil. Students were extremely interested and perhaps one might be led to someday be another Paul, Timothy, Silas, Barnabus, etc. Sister Denise was accompanied by John Franklin, Jermese Hathorn, and Kristen Lisembee. PLEASE SEE BELOW PICTURES. Other Friday Monthly Ministry nights done each year include "Sanctity of Life", "Purity Before Marriage", "Suicide Awareness and Prevention" and "Dangers of Drug Usage". ... See MoreSee Less
