The group will be facilitated by Śānti Matthews and Bill Bryan, with support and participation from Rev. Carol Ripley-Moffitt (and also likely our next pastor).
This course will support youth as they:
· acknowledge their faith journey
· share in discussions and activities that will encourage their commitment to deep questions
· deepen their personal relationship with each other and with God
· grow their understanding of our Christian and UCC heritage
· fully celebrate and claim their part in our church community.
We'll meet for about 12 Sunday classes (between November and April) two or three times a month (sometimes at 9:30 and sometimes at 10:30). We'll attend the UCC Winter Retreat in Blowing Rock January 17-20. We'll enjoy a chalice painting mini-retreat on a Sunday afternoon. Each youth will be supported as they create their own unique expression of faith. Confirmation will take place in worship in May or early June to celebrate the class and to confirm those who want to join the church.
