Youth and Adult |
|
Our Youth Group meets weekly and is for teens in grades 7 through 12. Each Sunday we continue to encourage each one to know, love and serve God through exploration of scripture and its biblical truths and help them apply it to their everyday lives. In addition, our youth have opportunities to be part of larger diocesan events and outreach ministries in order that they may share their faith and learn to serve others in the community. In doing so, they become a part of a much bigger community of believers. |

In addition, a teen music ministry meets after church on Sundays. Besides fun and companionship, the group combines their many skills to prepare worship music for the enjoyment of all. Teens have also traditionally helped in Episcopal worship as acolytes: robed participants who carry the cross in the processional, light and carry candles, or perform other services. Beyond this, however, teens can become readers, administer the chalice in communion, lead worship after training, or perform with the weekly music ministry. Teens are not “future adult members,” but are vital, contributing members now! |

ADULT OPPORTUNITIES |

Adult Forum Our adults have the opportunity to meet most Sundays following worship for about an hour and discuss contemporary topics from a Christian point of view. Each week’s session stands on its own and there is no registration required. The nursery is usually available. Kerygma Bible Studies Kerygma Bible Studies are accessible enough for those with little or no Biblical background and still challenging enough for those who have studied the Bible all their lives. This small group meets most Tuesday nights from September 23rd through February 3rd from 7:15 – 8:30 p.m. Registration is required. This session’s topic is Romans. Thursday Morning Women’s Bible Study The Thursday morning Women's Bible Study has been meeting for 20 years as of this year. This small group meets at 9:30 for a time of fellowship and Bible study closing with a brief time of prayer. Exodus is currently being studied. |
