The Youth Ministry of Christ Church embraces and supports our youth and their families, inspires and guides their spiritual growth as disciples of Christ, and empowers them to serve the church and the world.

As our children grow up, life only begins to move faster. In the midst of school and activities, we can often miss the experience of faith development and a deeper understanding of relationship in the family. The hope is to allow a space where parents can stop and reflect on how we can help our children develop through communication and connection with their family and faith. Classes are offered periodically with a different guest speaker, target age group, and focus or theme. Visit this link to view resources and more information about our next event.
Sunday mornings alternate between High School Forum/Middle School Sunday School and All-Youth Sunday School. Middle School Sunday School and All-Youth Sunday School is in the basement of the Baker Wing, Room 016. High School Forum is in the Parlor. View the curriculum via this link.

Dinner (all grades 7-12) – 6 to 6:30 p.m.
Senior EYC (grades 9-12) – 6:30 to 7:30 p.m.
Confirmation is a sacramental rite where you are affirming your covenant, or promise, from Baptism that was made by your parents. Confirmation is your turn to prepare and renew or strengthen your beliefs. In Confirmation we ask for God’s help in our relationship with God and the Church. There is no set time in life to be confirmed. Everyone must answer for themselves “I do”, “I believe”, and “I will with God’s help”. You church and family provide support, but it is your decision.
Stay tuned for more information on Confirmation 2027!
