Senior
High Youth Group This
large and well-established group meets weekly at 9:00 am in their own
lounge. Senior High youth work with their mentors and clergy staff to
take more responsibility for their own programming, recently producing a
four-week survey course on various Christian traditions. Each year,
these youth plan and produce a youth Eucharist, with student preachers and
musicians. This group engages seriously with outreach, annually
participating in the Walk for Hunger and hosting a Hunger Banquet for the
parish.

Mission
Statement
The Christian Education
Ministry will provide a program with the opportunity for all to
study the Scriptures, history and heritage of Christianity and the
Episcopal Church and to have Christian fellowship at all levels. In
addition to the study of the Scriptures, the church school curriculum will
include care of young children, worship experience in the chapel, and an
opportunity for learning Christian music as well as the experience of being a
part of a Christian community. The
curriculum of the youth communities will enable each young person to become a
mature, responsible and active Christian. There will be time for study,
service and fellowship. The
adult education curriculum will be multi-faceted, with study of the Scriptures,
Christian heritage and timely issues. The Christian Education Ministry
will cooperate with other ministries in presenting programs. The
Ministry will be responsible for recruiting and training church school teachers,
chapel leaders, youth community leaders and adult leaders.
