Youth are involved with as much of the life of our parish as possible. During worship services, we are grateful for the youth ministry as acolytes, as readers and prayer leaders, accompanying congregational singing in the instrumental consort, and in choir. As leaders in community service, youth serve on our mission trips, on the Outreach committee, and lead projects like Sleep-Out Saturday and food pantry drives.

July 2023 - Youth are meeting after the Sunday morning service, from 11:15 until 12:15. We’re learning West African drumming, discussing our spiritual life, planning future service opportunities, and just hanging out to play pool and ping pong. With snacks, of course!
