 Youth Group (Grades 6-12)

We strive to provide a safe and welcoming place for all of our youth to learn, grow, worship, and serve God in everything that we do.



General Information about our youth groups

The youth group is made up of two separate groups; Chi Rho for 6th-8th grade students, and CYF for 9th-12th grade students. 

The Chi Rho meeting area is in room 311 and the CYF meeting area, also known as the youth lounge, is in room 310. 

As a part of the Christian Church Disciples of Christ we affirm that everyone’s spiritual journey is a bit different and strive to walk with you in that journey.

Our classes and programs are set up to provide you with the tools to reach the answers to the deeper questions of life and faith, while affirming you as a beloved child of God.


Youth Education and Gatherings

There is a Youth Sunday School class all year long in the youth lounge. The youth are invited to come up to the youth lounge immediately following the 9:30am Rise service for games and fellowship. The study portion of the class begins soon after 11:00 am.

 

Throughout the school year there are Youth Group gatherings in the Youth Lounge on Sunday Evenings. Chi Rho begins at 5:00 pm and ends at 6:30 pm. CYF begins at 6:00 pm and ends at 8:00 pm. During the overlap time the two groups share dinner together. On the first Sunday of the month both groups will meet together for an activity night. The Sunday evening program will begin on September 18th.

 

Youth Activities

 

Over the course of the year, both groups have opportunities to enjoy overnight activities, retreats, and an annual mission trip.

 

There are also annual events that are sponsored by the Oregon region of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). These events are;

CYF and Chi Rho Church Camps

CYF River Rally

CYF Snow Rally

Chi Rho Mid-Winter Retreat

CYF Regional Prom

 

Annual Opportunities


     Summer Camp: Camp is held once a year and is hosted by our Regional Ministers.  It is held at Camp Whitebranch (60 miles east of Eugene).  CYF is the first week of August and Chi Rho Camp is the second week of August.You can find more information below, under the Forms and Information section.


       Mission Trip:  Each year our youth (grades 6-12) engage in a mission experience (either a trip out of state or local week long project).  This is a time of serving different communities, learning about God's people, and learning about living as a Christian community.


  Other:  The youth program is known for its monthly activities.  Some of these include overnight stays.
