Welcome to St. Christopher’s Episcopal Youth Community! We are very blessed with a healthy and active EYC ministry that expands a variety of ages. At St. Christopher’s, we believe that youth and children should be celebrated and we provide a variety of fun and spiritual programs for their growth as budding followers of Christ. Please see the following for a detailed description:

• PrEYC!
  • PrEYC is a program designed specifically for our third through fifth grade students. This ministry helps provide our older children with a “youth group” experience, and aids in the transition into Middle School ministries upon their entrance into sixth grade. We meet bi-weekly on Sunday’s from Noon-1:30pm for lunch, games, program, fellowship, and more. This ministry is welcome to all our older children, and is a wonderful opportunity for spiritual discovery!
     
• Middle School EYC!
  • We have a very active Middle School ministry for all sixth through eighth grade youth. Middle School can be a most challenging time for young people as they not only discover more about themselves, but about their faith-walk and relationship with Christ. Our middle school students meet every Wednesday during our Mid-Week Manna program from 5:30-7:15pm. We share a meal with the parish, and then split for games and program. This is a great chance for our younger youth to build healthy and uplifting relationships with one another and find comfort in the joy of Christ in their lives.
     
• High School EYC!
  • High School EYC is a fairly new ministry within St. Christopher’s Parish and we are excited to be on this journey! High school students are preparing for many new ventures as young adults and having a strong and sturdy Christian foundation is essential. Our high school students meet bi-weekly from 5:00-7:00pm, and we often meet out at places such as Ozone Pizza. All ninth through twelfth grade students are welcomed and encouraged to attend. We look forward to seeing many new faces this year!

 Please see the EYC Calendar for information on more upcoming events and fundraisers! For more information on how you can be involved with these ministries, please contact Vanessa Riutta, youth pastor, at vanessa@scpen.org or 850-433-0074. Thank you!
