Youth Programming

We believe that God calls us to teach our children the stories and lessons of our faith, and to offer them opportunities to grow in their relationship with God and with each other.

Nursery Care	Each Sunday morning, we offer nursery care to children under Sunday School age.
Sunday School	Our Sunday School curriculum from pre-kindergarten through grade 8 is the United Church of Christ Seasons of the Spirit, which coordinates with the passages read and preached in our worship. We also offer Sunday School for high school-aged youth. Sunday School takes place after the Time with the Children and Youth in our worship celebration.
Confirmation	We offer a Confirmation class, taught by our pastor and a lay leader, for 9 th and 10 th graders every other year.
Quarterly Intergenerational Worship	We believe that it is important for families to experience worship together, and enjoy the opportunity to include members and friends of all ages in our worship celebrations!
Youth Groups	Led by our youth minister, we have youth groups for grades 4 and 5, and for grades 6 through 8. We also have a quarterly gathering for high school age youth.
Mission	Our children and youth are very active in all of our mission efforts, from our work with the local Food Pantry, to packing Kits for Kids for disaster relief areas, to working in the Community Garden , to participating in mission trips to Honduras .
