We offer youth opportunities to nurture friendships, help others through missions, and grow in relationship with God. We meet on Sundays for Sunday School and worship and on Wednesday nights for Bible Study. We also have lots of fun activities and events outside the church. This ministry is open to all 6-12 graders. Come join our program and see for yourself. For more information or if you have any questions, please contact Kaitlyn Miller, Director of Youth Ministry. We look forward to seeing you soon!
Confirmation begins Jan. 27
Confirmation classes for students in sixth grade and older will begin Jan. 27. Classes meet Sunday mornings at 10 a.m. and are taught by Suzanne Clegg, Kaitlyn Miller, Pastor Jim, and a few volunteers. The class will go on a retreat to Lake Junaluska in the Spring. We worship, listen to great speakers, and enjoy workshops and activities during this weekend event. Topics include: baptism, communion, church history, and the Bible. This is a great experience for young people and helps them understand the Christian faith and make it their own. There is a sign-up sheet on the bulletin board in the Youth Room, or you may email Suzanne Clegg.

Wednesday Evenings
7 – 8 p.m. High School and Middle School Students
During the school year, High School students (9th-12th grades) meet on Wednesday nights for Bible study in our High School Small Group. The students meet in the church to read scripture, sometimes watch a brief video, have group discussions, and share prayer requests. At 8:00 p.m., the high schoolers are invited to go to DQ (2295 Buford Hwy, Buford) just down the road from the church for some cool treats (this is optional). Parents can pick up their high school student at 8:00 p.m. at the church or at 8:30 p.m. at DQ. We also have open gym in the CLC until 8:30 p.m. During the summer this schedule often changes so be sure to contact the church for more information.
