Parent Resources
Your Child’s Phase
THE PHASE WHEN THERE’S LESS DRAMA, MORE STRESS, AND YOUR VERY BUSY TEEN ANSWERS ALL OF YOUR QUESTIONS WITH, “JUST TRUST ME.”
Juniors want to matter now.
They want to live the life they feel they were born to live—and they Don’t want to wait to start. This year, look for ways to create an adventure, let them lead, and give them something significant to do.
Every eleventh grader wants to know, “How can I matter?” So, your role is to MOBILIZE their potential.
THERE ARE 104 WEEKS UNTIL GRADUATION. DON’T MISS IT.
Spiritual Focus
During your child’s school year, Victory Family Church will go in-depth in February on a biblical principle during services. This isn’t the only time they will learn about this topic. We are just emphasizing the principle during this period. The subject is determined based on their age, stage of development, and what’s culturally and socially relevant.
Tithes & Offerings
The principles of tithes and offerings are critical to our faith journey. We believe now is a crucial time to get this into our hearts, not as an action of duty, but of love and obedience.

Student Engagement
We want to walk alongside you with your students as they navigate their lives. These are resources and tools you can use with them!
One of the key areas we have identified for students to learn is how to manage finances, not just manage finances, but how to do finances God’s way. That is what we will focus on in this engagement. In 11th grade, your student can also go on the juniors and seniors missions trip to the Dominican Republic. We highly encourage them to go on this life-changing trip, where they will be impacted by serving others!
Global Missions
Through short-term mission trips, we get to act as the hands and feet of Jesus. We spread the gospel and help all people realize that God loves them unconditionally.
Next Gen Mission Trips
We aim to go on a mission trip to be Kingdom Builders. Through Kingdom Builders, Victory Family Church sends high school juniors and seniors on a missions trip.
