The Re:Form curriculum the Middle Schoolers will be using this year includes funny videos and goofy activities. Each week is focused on a big faith question, whether related to God, Christianity, or faith in general.

Middle school youth will join their families at communion. Although they are welcome to sit up in the sanctuary’s youth loft as well.

Our High Schoolers will get a special treat for Sunday morning. Bagels, donuts, and hot drinks will become a hospitality staple that will hopefully open up honest and engaging discussion over this year’s “What if…” questions relating to the Bible and Christian Faith in general. We will also be starting every morning with a youth group game.

1st Weekend of the Month

Offsite, see Calendar for Locations

Once a month our youth group gathers for fellowship outside of the church. On the first weekend of the month we alternate between fun outings and community service projects. Some things we have lined up for this year is Rock Climbing, Scavenger Hunts in Downtown Alameda, and Ice Skating as well as community service projects in San Francisco and Danville. See events calendar below for update details.

Scheduled Sundays, 12-1:15pm

Room 210

Second Floor of the Education Building

Every other year we offer a confirmation program for 8th-12th graders. We use a program called “Confirm Not Conform” which gives you plenty of space to try and figure out what you believe and let’s you compare that to all the “official” stuff that the church says. This is a great chance for you to question the stuff about God and faith and spirituality that your parents have told you, that the church tells you, and that society in general tells you. You’ll need to decide for yourself what you want to keep and what you want to drop, and whether or not you want to get confirmed at the end of all this.

If you are interested in joining our confirmation program this year, please email Stephen McHale.
