Youth Camps
Our youth attend such gatherings such as the GAP retreat at Camp Gilmont, Mission Longview, Junior High Jubilee at Mo-Ranch, Senior High Youth Connection (SHYC) and Synod Youth Workshop.
​
The youth often partners with other Grace Presbytery churches for mission trips. Past locations have included Little Rock (including a night at Heifer International's Global Village) and hurricane relief in the Houston area.
Weekly Youth Programs
FPC youth gather on Sunday mornings at 9:15 AM in the Fallout Shelter for Sunday School.
​
Seasonally, on Sunday evenings the youth bell choir (Righteous Ringers) meets at 3:30 PM. At 5:00 PM youth group begins with dinner, Bible study, games and more. Youth are invited to invite friends to plug in anytime! Our youth also participate in worship throughout the year, including Youth Sunday.
Confirmation
Confirmation is a six-week study that provides students with a foundation of faith and spiritual practice in the Reformed tradition. It invites Presbyterian youth to explore the meaning of their baptism and their participation at the Lord's Supper. They learn about church polity, stewardship, spiritual practices, worship, and mission.
