Opportunities for Youth

Our Youth Ministry Covenant

As youth, youth leaders and supporters, we promise to create a place together where all youth are truly welcome. We promise to make this a sacred place rooted in trust. We know that we will make mistakes, but we will always try to create a place where laughter can be heard and hope can be restored. We will work at creating a safe place where wonder is palpable, where curiosity is peaked and where no one really has the “right” answer. In this sacred space, we will know each other by name and be just as God created us without judgment or fear. It might not always be a perfect place – but we will work together to imagine a place where everything connects when we are being silly and playful or serious and prayerful or struggling for justice and peace. We will trust each other to try to live as Jesus teaches us, loving each other with each step along the way.

In September 2008, we welcomed Bangor Theological Seminary student Aaron French into leadership of ministry with our youth. With the inspiring energy of Steve Ferris and others, Aaron will be working toward meeting the needs of the teenagers in our community. Look here soon for an updated schedule of events.
