Our Youth and Children’s Programs are growing. We are committed to the full personhood of youth and children and work to give them access to all of church life and faith. We encourage questions while we follow Christ, listen for the Spirt in our lives, and strive to love and honor God in joy and humility.
Children’s Church: A Comprehensive Program of Inclusion
- In the sanctuary: Children have a space of their own in the sanctuary, with quiet activities, books, and coloring so that whether they want to sit in the pews with family and friends or sit at the children’s table, they are in worship and know that they belong.
- Storytime for All Ages: Each Sunday someone from the congregation or our pastor delivers a message that is addressed to our youngest churchgoers, but resonates with even our most mature members. This message often focuses on the learning the children will do during Children’s Church.
- Children’s Church: After storytime, kids head to Children’s Church for a lesson around the message and theme of the day. Kids are welcome to join the learning or remain in the sanctuary.
Middle and High School Youth: Faith, Fellowship, and Service
Our Youth Group is self-directed and meets monthly with the pastor and adult youth mentors. We meet in the fall to plan our activities for the year, which include learning and fellowship, as well as service and spiritual development. This group is open to all middle and high school students and their friends.
