Roots & Branches (K – 12th grades)
9-9:45am (September – May)

An engaging experience for kids and youth to learn side-by-side, build mentoring relationships, spark curiosity, and connect faith to everyday life. We learn about God, His love, and His creation through science, art, movement, and other creative pursuits.

Confirmation (7th – 8th grades)
9-9:45am (September – May)

A class for middle school students that presents an overview of the Bible and church beliefs, allowing space for in-depth discussion, asking questions, and personal reflection. This is a 2-year-long commitment. Contact us for more information.

Sunday Worship
10am

Youth are invited to join all of SCC for Sunday worship. There are tables available to those who need space to spread out, doodle, etc. during the service. We also warmly welcome youth volunteers interested in serving on the worship or AV/tech teams, or serving with kids during worship!

For 6th – 12th grades
Wednesdays ~ 6:30-8:30pm
(summer schedule)

We meet each week for hanging out; foosball; friendship bracelets; goofy games; energetic, student-led worship; a short Bible lesson; and time for quieter connection & reflection.

During summer, we rotate to a different park in the area each week to get outside and have a change of scenery. Summer youth group activities include kickball, shoe golf, ice blocking, beachcombing, and more!

For 9th – 12th graders
1st & 3rd Sundays ~ 6-8pm
(summer schedule varies)

A dedicated time for high schoolers to have some food, fun, fellowship, and faith conversations with friends and leaders. This time is meant to help our high schoolers stay rooted in their faith and in community through connection with other high schoolers, as well as an opportunity to talk about questions that might be more impactful/interesting for older teens. There’s also time for some extra games and hilarity!

Engaging with our local and global community is an important part of youth ministry at SCC! Past and ongoing service projects include raising money for well/agricultural projects in the Democratic Republic of Congo; collecting food for Hopelink food bank; packing Thanksgiving boxes for local families; supporting the cooperative VBS at First Lutheran Richmond Beach; learning from/serving alongside the Mending Wings youth community at the Yakama Reservation; as well as leading in worship, ushering, and running slides during our Sunday services.
