Walking alongside kids as they learn more about themselves, the world and Jesus is how we approach all our youth programs at Spirit. We believe in making faith fun! We model our programs based on a partnership between the family and the church. Families are the primary group that instill faith and identity into kids lives, so we work to make sure families have all the resources available to ignite the faith fires in their kids. Our programs run from September through May on Wednesdays from 6pm-7:45pm. During the summer we host family oriented events to stay connected. More information about our programs and registration is listed below.

Watch for special youth events on our homepage and the church calendar!

Preschool - Grade 5

Our Shine program focuses on engaging kids to wonder, explore and ask questions. Our curriculum is centered on making faith fun and Jesus part of their everyday lives. We do this in grade targeted classes, led by our awesome team of Shine Leaders. Kids learn about the Bible, Jesus, and how to be young Christians through hands-on, group activities.

Grades 6 - 9

The overall goal of confirmation is to grow in knowledge and faith and develop lasting relationships with one another and trusted adult leaders. We live in a complex world and are faced, daily, with questions and challenges regarding who we are, who we belong to, and who we are in the world. These are, ultimately, questions of vocation—Who has God called us to be in the world? Confirmation is an opportunity for young people to begin to explore the intersection of their identity and the story of God’s people. To help better understand God’s call in our lives, our three year program focuses on the Bible, the Catechism, and daily living a life of faith. At the end of this three year cycle, our young people are prepared to confess the Christian faith as their own and continue a life-long journey of following Jesus.

Grades 9 - 12

High School is filled with questions, new challenges, changing relationships, and planning for the future. It is both a time of incredible excitement, but can also be a time of change and uncertainty. At Spirit, we walk alongside our High School youth as they continue to grow in faith and discover who God is calling them to be in the world. We intentionally create a safe place for High School youth to share their experiences, grow in their faith and feel like they belong.
