Youth Ministry at Christ Church
Upcoming Events!

Confirmation
Sundays, Sept. 15 - June 7, 2025
11:15 am - 12:15 pmOur inspiring and educational Confirmation program prepares 8th grade students for the rite of Confirmation, a liturgy in which baptized Christians affirm their faith and make a mature, public commitment to a life in Christ. Open to all Christian denominations. 16 classes include community service, fun activities, and conversations about faith in a safe, inclusive atmosphere, where questions are not only accepted, but encouraged.
On June 7, 2025, candidates for Confirmation will come before the Bishop to renew the promises that parents and godparents made on their behalf at their baptism.

Youth Groups Begins!
High School - Monday, Sept 9
Middle School - Tuesday, Sept 10
6:00 - 8:00 pm | Youth Room (dinner included)Come find out what we have planned for Middle and Upper School students. Led by Youth Director Josh Barton, this group meets weekly plus for scheduled special events. Join for some fun, share a meal together, and allow for meaningful, faith filled conversations to take place.
Here at Christ Church we are doing all that we can to build safe spaces for students to ask those questions and we want to provide the environments for those conversations to take place. So often I hear parents tell me that they want their kids to be exposed to the Christian faith and they want their kids to understand the Christian way of living. I hope to provide that opportunity to all middle school and high school students here at Christ Church.
We meet together most weeks throughout the school year. We have fun, share a meal together, and allow for meaningful, faith filled conversations to take place. I truly believe these opportunities for our students are so important and I hope to give our students the same experience I had as a young man the good news of who Christ is and how Christ can change their lives too.
Please reach out to me with any questions, concerns, or inquiries. I am here to partner with your family in this beautiful journey we call life.
