Youth

Our youth ministry is a vital and emphasized part of daily life at First Presbyterian. The program is steeped in God’s word and looks outwardly for opportunities to extend His message of Grace into our community.

The Youth Committee oversees ministry for youth in grades 6-12 working with the Director of Youth Ministries. Our youth ministry places strong emphasis on relationships, Bible study, and missions. To that end, we have the following regularly scheduled activities.

  • Sunday school with classes for 6-7th grades, 8th grade (Confirmation Class), 9-12th grades meeting each Sunday morning at 9:00 am. The youth meet together initially in the basement of the Gideon Blackburn House(GBH) for fellowship and announcements and then go to their individual classes for Bible study.
  • Wednesday morning Breakfast and Bible Study is at 6:45 a.m. and meets in our library.  Every youth is welcome and we’ll stop in time for you to get to school.  Call Andrew if you’d like to join us 256-536-3354 ext. 131.
  • PYC (Presbyterian Youth Connection) meets Sunday evenings from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.  Come join us for food, fun, fellowship as we look at God’s word.  All youth gather in the Fellowship Hall where we eat and then we get into our small groups at the GBH.
  • LOGOS is a Wednesday night ministry of the church. The youth portion of LOGOS consists of choir at 5:15 p.m. followed by supper and Bible study. LOGOS Youth ends at 7:30p.m.
  • Our youth are active in our community, desiring to make known the hope we have in Christ, through word and deed.  For further information on any of our youth related programming, please contact Andrew Bevel,  Youth Director at abevel@hsv1pres.org or 536-3354 ext. 131.
