Youth Programs
SUNDAY YOUTH CHURCH SCHOOL
The Junior Youth Class (grades 6-7) and the Senior Youth class (grades 8 – 12) use a variety of short-term studies throughout the year to help connect their faith with their life. Generally these studies are age-appropriate discussions challenging youth to think for themselves how Christian principles affect their lives. Our church adapted a Safe Sanctuary Policy for the well being and safety of our children and youth. The purpose of this policy is to demonstrate our absolute and unwavering commitment to the physical safety and spiritual growth of our children and youth. Please review this policy with your family. We also CORI checkour teachers.
YOUTH FELLOWSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
In addition to the youth Church School classes that meet on Sunday morning, we offer fellowship groups for both younger Junior Youth and older Senior Youth in 5th – 12th grade. Each of our two youth groups focus on a mission opportunity throughout the year. They also are involved in various programs of our church.
Junior Youth Group
This fellowship group is for youth in 5th-7th grade. We meet on Friday nights and have fun together, learn together and learn about God’s love for us. Please watch for the dates, which will be posted in the bulletin, monthly Advocate newsletter, and church calendar. Friends are always welcome!
Senior Youth Group
This fellowship group will meets on Sundays after the second service. All youth in 8th-12th grade are welcome to join us. You do not need to be a member of the church. Please watch for the dates, which will be posted in the bulletin, monthly Advocate newsletter, and church calendar. Every summer, we spend a week together on our Youth Mission Trip. Throughout the year, we have fun together, work together and grow in our relationship with God.
