A newly-formed (and forming) Youth Group meets most Sunday nights at 6pm in the White House for a light supper, fun games and silly activities, and faith formation/prayer. All youth in grades 6-12 are welcome to attend.

The first quarter of 2010 will involve an 8 week confirmation class as outlined below. [Confirmation is an introduction to faith for those who are coming of age in their faith. It is a rite of passage wherein we find words together for understanding the previous work of God in our lives and wherein we intentionally begin to embrace a lifetime of Christian discipleship.] Any youth is welcome to attend any session during this 8 week course.
