Youth Education

YOUTH EDUCATION
Our Youth Education programs appeal to students’ multiple intelligences and the unique needs of each age category.

All youth Sunday School classes meet at 9am from September – July with breaks for worship and service.

• 5^th & 6^th graders participate in Route 56, a hands-on, active Sunday school program which explores the Bible and faith through a curriculum designed by a team of UMCG educators.
• 7^th & 8^th graders participate in PraXis Sunday school/confirmation program which prepares students to claim for themselves the vows made at their baptism through fellowship, study, service, and worship.
• 9^th-12^th graders participate in Senior High Sunday School which focuses on Kingdom living in a secular world.

More Youth Opportunities:

Youth & Theology is a student-led, off-site monthly meeting for middle school and high school-aged students to discuss theological questions.
