Family Framework

A GAME PLAN FOR GROWTH

The Family Framework is simply a roadmap for important spiritual milestones for your child from birth to graduation. NewPointe is committed to walking alongside of you as a parent, the spiritual leader of you household, in every season. These stages are a great way to plan for your child's spiritual growth as you gain resources. 

10 STEPS OF THE FAMILY FRAMEWORK


CHILD DEDICATION

For: New Parents (Birth - 2 Years) 
Frequency: 3 times a year

You'll commit to raising your child, with the help of the church and your support system, in a foundation of faith, and receive resources to do just that! This step is intended for new parents but is welcome for families with kids of any age.

PARENTING GAME PLAN

For: Parents (Birth - 5 Years)
Frequency: 2 times a year

Gain practical tools and guidance to navigate the challenges of parenting with faith and intentionality through the younger years. This will set parents up for success in raising their kids.

BIBLE PRESENTATION

For: Kids (Entering Grade 2)
Frequency: 1 time a year

As your child enters Grade 2, their faith will become more and more their own. Gifting your child a Bible can be an important step in that process and will be a keepsake to grow their faith for a lifetime. This event will happen every spring. 


FAMILY JAM

For: Kids (Elementary)
Frequency: 4 times a year

Join us for a fun-filled family event that provides parents with practical ways to lead their children spiritually. There will be fun, games, and even a meal will be provided! This event is geared toward elementary-age kids, but younger siblings are welcome to join the fun.

DISCOVER FOR KIDS

For: Kids (Elementary)
Frequency: 4 times a year

Is your child asking questions about baptism? Or about making Jesus the leader of their life? These are big questions that you may need help answering! Attending Discover for Kids with your child will help you have these conversations and discover your child's next step.

JUMPSTART

For: Parents & Kids (Grades 4-5)
Frequency: 1 time a year

Talking to your kids about sex can be tricky. Fortunately, God has given us His Word to guide us in having "the big talk." This class is designed to jumpstart a conversation between you and your kids in Grades 4-5 about God's design for sex and His purpose for sexuality. 

STUDENT GAME PLAN

For: Parents (Middle School)
Frequency: 1 time a year

There comes a time when a child takes responsibility for their own growth. Here we offer practical tools and guidance to navigate the challenges of teenage years with faith and intentionality, helping students grow in their relationship with Christ and become contributors rather than spiritual consumers. 

BRAVE

For: Students (Grades 7-8)
Frequency: 1 time a year

This event is designed to help your students in Grades 7-8 learn how to be an owner of their faith, know their identity in Christ, and build strong and healthy relationships with those around them. There will be a Brave ceremony following this event for students in Grade 8, where they will make a commitment to live differently as they begin their high school journey.

PASSAGE

For: Parents & Students (Grade 10)
Frequency: 1 time a year

So your student is in Grade 10. They have a mind and faith of their own and they are just a few years away from being out on their own. Attend Passage with your student and create a family creed together to help guide family decisions for years to come. 

SENIOR CELEBRATION

For: Students (Graduating Seniors)
Frequency: 1 time a year

We're taking our graduating seniors to Cedar Point for an unforgettable day of fun and memory-making. A one-night retreat will follow this day of fun! Once we're back, have your family join us for food, and an encouraging word where we celebrate all your senior has accomplished!
