Choose Your Ministry Experience
Every GEMS Club is unique. Select from GEMS Core Bible Study Curriculum, GEMS Outdoors, Badge Activities, or a combination of all three to create an experience that fits your girls, Leaders, schedule, and setting. Make your own Ministry Experience: build your club around one option or mix and match for the best fit for your girls.
Core Bible Study Curriculum
Help girls grow in faith through a complete, Scripture-centered curriculum for your regular club gatherings. This year’s featured study helps girls learn to follow God’s direction and trust Him along the way. Printed Large Group and Small Group Guides, a Girl’s Journal, and online resources equip Leaders to guide girls through meaningful Bible teaching, conversation, and connection.
GEMS Outdoors
Take discipleship outside with twelve flexible sessions that bring together outdoor experiences, practical skills, relationships, and biblical truth. Use GEMS Outdoors as your primary program, for a summer plan occasional adventure nights, or weave sessions into your year alongside other GEMS resources. Each purchase includes digital sessions and downloadable leader materials, with optional printed journals for girls available separately.
Badge Activities
Help girls discover new interests, develop practical skills, serve others, and grow in faith through Discovery Path Badge Activities. Build much of your year around badges or choose a few to complement your other ministry experiences—there’s no required number to complete. Current Clubs can access digital Mentor’s Helps and Girl Activity Pages through the GEMS Club Portal, with embroidered badges purchased separately to celebrate what girls have learned.
Different Experiences. One Purpose.
At GEMS, every ministry experience shares one purpose: helping girls grow in a living, dynamic relationship with Jesus Christ. Bible study, outdoor adventures, and hands-on badge activities give girls opportunities to explore God’s Word, discover their gifts, and put their faith into practice.
Relationships are at the heart of it all. GEMS equips caring women in your church to consistently walk alongside girls—listening, encouraging, and helping them connect biblical truth to everyday life. Through those relationships, girls find a place to belong, ask questions, and discover that they are known and loved by God.
Your Club has the freedom to choose how that happens. Build your year around Core Bible Study Curriculum, head outside with GEMS Outdoors, explore Discovery Path Badge Activities, or combine all three. With practical resources, Leader training, and personal support from GEMS, your church can create a ministry that fits your girls and helps them grow.
