Middle School Youth
For the 2024-2025 year Middle School Youth at Christ Church will be exploring ways to move closer to God - through nature, art, journaling, singing, reading, silence, service, and friendship.
There are many different ways and times to be a part of the Middle School youth group. On Sunday mornings youth can volunteer during the liturgy and spend time with friends and leaders afterword during coffee hour. Throughout the year we’ll join with our church family over hamburgers and pancakes, Ash Wednesday soup and Maundy Thursday bitter herbs. On select days throughout the year we’ll serve our community making sandwiches, serving meals, and picking up trash. And on Sunday evening twice a month from 5-7pm we’ll gather at the church for dinner, games, projects and conversation.
“Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.” Psalm 34:8

Through the night from Maundy Thursday to Good Friday, Christ Church volunteers keep vigil praying in the chapel, remembering Jesus' prayers in the garden of Gethsemane the night before he died.
