Youth ministry creates educational, safe, fun, and Christ-centered ministries for youth in the Presbyterian church.
Opportunities for Youth
Winter Camp
December 28-30
Pack your coat, gloves, and hat! Youth in grades 5-12 are invited to experience frosty fun, faith, and fellowship at Winter Camp. In this getaway, enjoy many camp favorites, plus some special ones just for this season. Camp Hanover's longhouses are climate-controlled, so campers will have toasty places to warm up. This event is for individual campers registered by their caregivers. Youth group leaders do not have to provide chaperones like they do for retreats.
Confirmation Retreat
January 31-February 2, 2025
This retreat focuses on broader questions of why we join the Church, what we want our churches to be like, and how we can actively engage in that work. Participants will join small groups to hear ideas from people from other churches, and also have time with their home group to continue with their own lessons.
Middle School Conference
June 19-July 18, 2024 (multiple sessions)
Massanetta Springs Middle School Conference is a transformational program that welcomes hundreds of middlers and their leaders from all over the country each summer. Participants attend keynotes, recreation, workshops, and worship designed with them in mind. Youth will reflect and learn alongside youth from other places, with support from high school leaders.
