Last Friday night, nearly 200 middle school students filled Bethel for one of the biggest events of the year—7-11! From dodgeball and knockerballs to karaoke and prizes, the night was packed with laughter, energy, and community. Students hung out with friends, enjoyed pizza, candy, and drinks, and competed in games all across the church.

To close out the night, Jared shared a powerful message with all 200 students. He talked about how—unlike the prizes some won that night through luck or effort—God offers us the greatest gift of all: a relationship with Jesus. It’s not something we can earn or win; it’s freely given. And that’s the best prize of all.

We’re so thankful for everyone who served, invited friends, and made this incredible night possible!
