Youth Ministry

Welcome! Our mission is to coach our youth toward the same marks of faithful Jesus-following that we expect from their parents and grandparents.

We offer opportunities to serve and to study.

The foundation of our mission includes:

• Sunday Morning Worship
• Bible Study
• Prayer
• Fun Fellowship Events
• Service Projects
• Diocesan Retreats 

Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not stop them; for it is to such as these that the kingdom of heaven belongs.” And he laid his hands on them. — Matthew 19:14-15

Youth Group

Sunday Nights on Zoom @ 6pm

For the pandemic season, we've combined Youth Group and Youth Formation to meet via Zoom on Sunday nights at 6PM. We gather, share our Pows & Wows (one good thing and one not so good thing) from the week, play a game together then do a short Bible Study. 

Spring Semester 2021 we are using Teen Text. We look at a reading from Sunday's lectionary and Go Deep, Be Real, Let Go. Plus we look at different media (film, art, literature) that illustrate the reading.  

Occasionally Youth Group will meet off campus for a fun activity such as bowling, rock climbing, trampoline parks, etc. Newcomers and friends are always welcome!

Text “@stdsyo” to 81010 for info and text reminders about events.

• Youth Acolyte Corps
• Prayer Partners
• Diocesan Events

The Acolyte Corps offers youth the opportunity to read Scripture, assist in the administration of the Holy Communion, and to commit to serve on a regular basis under the direction of a lay leader on Sunday Mornings and at special services. Contact Mitch LeJeune 

Youth and a senior adult parishioner are paired to meet for lunch and fellowship and to strengthen the bonds of our congregation across generations. The Prayer Partners shared prayer cards so that they would continue to pray for each other over the course of the year. If you are interested in joining, please email Sarah Quiroga or call 281-440-1600.
