WELCOME TO CHRISTIAN EDUCATION
Fostering children's spiritual growth is one of our main missions. Our Director of Children and Family Ministries leads the Sunday children's message and spearheads our creative Sunday School program, Vacation Bible School, and oversees the Youth Services and our Confirmation Program. All lesson topics will be found in our monthly newsletter!
 
CHILDREN AND SUNDAY SCHOOL
(September through June) At First Pres, the program begins at 10:15 for children ages Pre-K through High School. Students first attend the opening minutes of our 10:00 am worship service to hear a children's message. After the children's message, all are dismissed to class as a group, where they learn and discuss the exciting stories of the Bible. On the first Sunday of each month, we have Communion Sunday, and they will attend Sunday School at 10:00 AM.
​
CONFIRMATION
Confirmation Class for 8th- and 9th-Graders is held every other year. Young people may choose to join our church as full members after completing a one-year confirmation experience. We offer a program, using the curriculum Big God, Big Questions, to all confirmation candidates. This program helps young people to grow as faithful disciples and responsible members of the community of faith. Students meet for about a dozen group classes that meet on Sundays at 10:15 am. They are also invited to a confirmation retreat in October at Johnsonburg Camp & Retreat Center in Johnsonburg,
NJ.
​
YOUTH GROUP
We hold Youth Group events throughout the year. The older youth participate in community service and mission projects, fundraisers, and serve the church as liturgists through the Advent and Lenten seasons.
