Youth at Christ Church

Youth ministry at Christ Church is grounded in the conviction that faith happens in and through community. The purpose of our youth programs is to nurture a climate where young people are fully integrated into the life of the church. We carry on this mission by recognizing and amplifying the life-giving talents young people have to offer the church: sharing their musical talents, doing outreach in our community, giving senior sermons, acolyting, ushering, volunteering, providing tech-support, and much more. 


Our youth ministry mission:

 Nurture a climate where young people are fully integrated into the life of the church.

Youth Events

Youth Group 


On various Sundays from September through June, the youth of Christ Church meet for Bible Study, fellowship, outreach, and other activities. Questions? Email Chris Whitaker.


The Breakfast Club


The Breakfast Club (grade 6-12) meets the first Sunday of every month at 9:00am in the CCSH Kitchen. Join us as we prepare our favorite breakfasts, discuss relevant topics, and grow together throughout the year. 


Confirmation at Christ Church


Confirmation is a one-year program for youth 8th grade and older that allows our young people to reflect deeply on faith, its relevance in their lives and to live out God’s love in friendship. At the end of our confirmation classes, youth may choose to make a public declaration of faith in the sacrament of Confirmation at our cathedral. The goal is to teach our youth the way of Christ, not only in the church but also in the world; to help them make connections between these lessons and their own lives, and to prepare them for Christian adulthood. 

Register your youth for confirmation or youth group


Youth Pilgrimage & Missions 


Our Youth Ministry experience is anchored in journeys away from home dedicated to volunteer work, prayer, relationship building and new cultural experiences.
