Youth Programs

FCC is fully committed to our youth by providing a program that focuses an both personal and spiritual growth. Our Youth Program encourages individual expression and attempts to create an affirming and uplifting atmosphere that nurtures self-esteem, promotes common courtesy, and follows the teaching of our Lord Jesus Christ. Groups are open to all youth who come with a respectful attitude and are open to the challenge of personal enrichment.


Sunday Church School - All Ages
Classes are divided by age or grade level and meet for about an hour each Sunday, between the Contemporary [1] and Traditional [2] church services. Each class has a different, age-appropriate focus and provides a safe place for children to interact.
Class begins at 9:15 a.m. and ends around 10:15.

Worship and Wonder - 3 years through 2nd grade
Children Worship & Wonder offers an exciting way to approach faith formation with children. The approach recognizes children as spiritual beings who already have a relationship with God. This worship service takes place during Traditional worship. The children are led out of the traditional service by an adult greeter after the Children's Moment.
