The youth in our Christian Education program attend Sunday School and Youth Group to learn how to apply Biblical teachings to their lives.  Youth prepare to make profession of faith and become full members of the congregation in Confirmation class.

Our Sixth to Twelfth Grade class uses the Akaloo series from Augsburg Fortress. Akaloo, from the Greek work akolouthein or "to follow", calls us to follow Jesus not just on Sunday mornings, but throughout our lives. This four year rotation follows the views from the writers of the four Gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.

Loni, Matt and Bobbi lead this fun, inspiring, youth Bible study each Wednesday night starting in mid-September. Along with Wednesday night gatherings, the Ungabunga Tribe participates in service projects such as Habitat for Humanity, Christmas gift wrapping and a 30 Hour Famine sponsored by World Vision.

Confirmation prepares young people to make a public profession of faith. The class is taught by the pastor and a volunteer from the Christian Education committee. We use the 35-session course Professing our Faith, produced by the Presbyterian Church (USA). In addition to studying together, the class participates in special projects and educational trips.

First Presbyterian Church is now on Facebook! Our Facebook site will host upcoming events for our youth, church news and updates, and be a new place to post prayer requests and discussions. The site is monitored by our Christian Education Director to ensure a safe and positive place online. Come check it out!

Are you ready to starve for food?

In 2009 First Presbyterian youth and adults gave up food for 30 hours and raised over $1400 for World Vision and our church pantry. We hope to surpass that number in 2010!!

Come join us April 23-24 for this great event!
