CLASSES FOR YOUTH
As our young people reach Middle and High school, we simply repeat the sequence of goals indicated in
the children's classes, knowing that they will be heard and understood on a much deeper level than during
early childhood. These youth learn to apply God's teachings in shaping their own personal faith journey.
Many current events and real life examples are used to facilitate this process.
GRADES 6 THROUGH 8 (Middle School)
GRADES 9 THROUGH 12 (Senior High)
