Our COS Youth have embarked on a program of study called Our Whole Lives, Sexuality and Our Faith! This class meets on Sundays after the worship service in the OWL Room/Middlers Classroom. Contact Rev. Tonya Barnette for more information!
Our COS Youth Group
A space where you can be comfortable being yourself and learn about theology, scripture, and following The Way of Jesus! We have a small group of dedicated adult facilitators who help to guide discussions on topics ranging from Spiritual Practices That Ground and Center Us to How to Talk to Friends whose Religious and Political Beliefs Are Wildly Different from Mine!
We also go on Service/Immersion Trips and fun retreats, do service work around the church campus, and join other congregation leaders in advocacy and justice work!
Our Youth Group is firmly and joyfully Open & Affirming to LGBTQIA+ folks! We meet during the worship servive, after Children’s Time, in Shalom House!
Youth Group Facilitator, Doug Hulsether, helps Eva Rogers hide Easter eggs!
