(pending) Grades 9-12: Youth Group
We are hoping to have a Youth Group for the 24-25 year!
We are in the process of rebuilding and staffing this program.
We don’t know yet when or how often this group will meet. In the past, they met 2-3 Sundays/month. There were also some Saturday nights.
Our Youth Group has always been a blend of youth whose families are part of CVUUS and youth who come from the community.
The Youth Group has done lots of things in the past, including:
- Eating! pizza, baking cookies, going to get ice cream
- social justice work
- cooking for John Graham Shelter
- John Graham Sleepout fundraiser
- participating in protests
- June week-long service trips to NYC and Long Island
- fundraising for those trips!
- games of all kinds: Escape Room board game, Minute To Win It challenges…
- Congregation-wide bakeoff with lots of great desserts and the highly regarded Golden Spoon awards
- created and ran their own Sunday morning worship service
- apple picking and donut-eating at local orchard
- watching film and discussing
- CROP Walk
- Pride (Midd Pride is October 12!)
- assisted in younger RE groups and the Nursery
- and much more
