MIX 2023 Student Registration


Theme for MIX 2023: Nevertheless
Being a Christian is so much more than just going to church and trying hard to be good. Being a Christian means Jesus is totally in charge of our lives. What does this mean for a middle school student? It means that their thoughts, their habits, their belongings, their wildest dreams - everything about them- is no longer what they live for. Instead, they have Jesus living in them. When we live for ourselves, we get prideful, angry, scared, bored, and even plain mean. But when Jesus lives through us, we are filled with love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, and self- control. At MIX 2023, we will learn what it means to die to Christ but nevertheless have him alive within us.
