Youth Ministries
Middle School
Middle School Youth Ministry: we seek to strengthen relationships, build community, and have fun as we remind youth they are a child of God - chosen and loved deeply and fiercely. We incorporate Bible study, service activities, food, and community building experiences into Sunday School and Youth Group.
Middle School Youth
6th - 8th graders
Sundays, 11:00am
Room 2 - Ground Floor
Led by Becky Giles
Confirmation
Confirmation is an opportunity for 9th and 10th grade youth to explore and understand their faith over an intentional 7-month journey. Through this experience, youth will understand how important they are to God, to First Presbyterian Church, and how they can continue to grow in their faith and leadership. The next class rotation will begin in the fall of 2025.
High School
High School Ministry: we strive to reinforce a “safe space” for questions, doubt, wrestling, celebration, and curiosity; inviting anything going on outside the walls of church to be discussed and explored and shared within the church community.
High School FOR REAL!
9th - 12th graders
Sundays, 11:00am, Room 117 (Officers' Room)
High School students will explore God's faith and love together through a guided study of Jana Riess' book Flunking Sainthood - A Year of Breaking the Sabbath, Forgetting to Pray, and Still Loving My Neighbor. Through this memoir and shared discussions, the youth will embrace the lessons failure can teach and the simple truths given by our loving God - all surrounded by the encouraging love and nurture of one another and adult leaders.
Led by Barrett Thompson
Ready to Connect?
We would LOVE youth in 6th through 12th grade to be at FPCLY Sunday mornings for a time of fun, laughter, and faith exploration. Our desire is to build an encouraging community to explore, grow, and learn together!
