Saint James Youth

|
|
The Youth Community at St. James is in the middle of ongoing formation. Beginning in the summer of 2007, we began to discern a new direction for youth ministry, which included the founding of a Journey to Adulthood program at Saint James. This process is ongoing.

Sunday Morning Blender
|
|
|
 Sunday Morning Blender is what we call our 5th, 6th, and 7th grade youth group at Saint James! We begin most events with worship at 9:00am in the church and then begin again at 10:15 in the Middle School Art Room. What do we do then? You just can't ever tell - Sometimes we make bread, sometimes we play games, sometimes we undertake fun challenges, sometimes we do service. No matter what we do, however, we always have fun getting to know ourselves and one another better. Sure, it's kind of like a youth mixer - but its even more than that, too - it's a BLENDER!

Do you feel called to Youth Ministry?
|
|
Join us in the spring for a two-hour workshop to discern whether or not you have a calling to youth ministry. Our session will open with prayer, followed by an exploration of what youth ministry is and can be, and will end with a period of meditation. The gifts of the spirit are many, and yours may lead you to places you never expected!
