Youth Groups
We are a group of Middle and High School age young people that meet regularly to hang out and provide service to the community. Each year we send a large group of youth to another community to provide help and to come closer together as a group. Through the year we have many fun fundraisers to help pay for our mission work and so that we can host events for the youth of the presbytery. We are going to be very involved with the presbytery and with the national church as well. Youth Triennium is coming up in 2010 and we plan on participating. We welcome all youth with an interest in church and community service. Join us on the first Sunday of every month for our regularly scheduled meeting and call or email David Stewart or Annie Coburn-Kane for more information. We look forward to seeing you!

Middle & Senior High Sunday School
Youth in Middle & High School meet at 10:00AM in the Senior High Fellowship Room. Youth in this class take a closer look at the Bible and discuss what the Bible means in their lives and today’s headlines. Please contact Monica Barner for more information on Sunday School.
Confirmation classes are available approximately every other year for youth in 7th Grade and up. The classes are led by our Pastor and the CE Director for 10 weeks, culminating in a worship service.
Fellowship
All Middle and High School youth are encouraged to join Youth Fellowship and enjoy the faith we share. Youth Fellowship is active in mission work with an annual Mission Trip and regular work in the community. The Mission Trip is open to all interested youth, but we encourage participation in fund raising to make the cost reasonable for all attendees. There are meetings for the Youth Fellowship group the first Sunday of every month and fun activities all the time. Please contact Annie Coburn-Kane or David Stewart-Rogers for more information about the Youth Group.
