Youth Sunday School – Each Sunday morning, 2nd – 5th Sundays of the month, Youth Sunday School meets in the Youth Basement of the church with classes for 7th – 12th graders. Singing and lively discussion are a part of the plan on most of these Sundays. The total group begins together and then moves into age-level Jr. and Sr. High classes for more reflection and discussion. On First Sundays youth are encouraged to attend one of our morning worship services with their families – this is encouraged the rest of the month as well!
Confirmation – Confirmation is an introduction to the Christian faith, history and theology. We explore the foundations of Christianity, the United Methodist tradition and the current church. Many are baptized as infants, their parents promising to raise them in a Christian home and to teach them about faith in God. Confirmation is that time in a young person’s life, regardless of baptism, when they explore the possibility of accepting the Christian faith for themselves. This class is offered once every school year to youth in ninth grade or higher and runs every other week from October through April. This year’s class begins with a parent & youth meeting on Sunday September 18th from 12:00-1:30 p.m. Classes will meet at that same time throughout the year starting October 1st.
United Methodist Youth Fellowship (UMYF) – UMYF for all 7th – 12th graders meets on Sunday evenings from 6:00 – 8:00 at the church. These gatherings are an opportunity to meet other youth, join with old friends and grow closer to God through worship, singing, games and discussion. This group also participates in retreats, lock-ins, service projects, mission trips, and leading worship for the congregation. We come together to grow in our faith through fellowship, prayer, worship and dialogue. Come and join us for Faith, Fellowship and Fun!
Youth Circuits - “Youth Circuits” are small groups of youth that gather at a variety of times and frequencies to develop relationships and deepen faith by connecting youth around similar interests. For information on upcoming meetings and events contact Rev. Linn Zink (see contact information below or call the church office).
