Who you are is defined by the choices you make
If you are a student in grades 6 to 12 and attend Christ Episcopal Church, you are a member of our EYC (Episcopal Youth Community)! EYC is a time where we come together as Christians, in the name of Jesus Christ, and as friends to learn how to serve others and strengthen our walk with Him so that we might build stronger lives according to His commandments. We believe that the mission of Christ Episcopal Churchs EYC is to share the love of Christ with others through our words, choices and actions by welcoming everyone, reaching out to those in need, building friendships, having fun, growing together as a community and developing our lives with Christ in a fun and healthy atmosphere.
We meet every other Tuesday from 6-8pm at Christ Episcopal Church to fellowship together and strengthen our walk with Christ. For our Tuesday meetings from 6-8pm, we will be watching a series of videos, discussing them and concluding with group work and bible study. While our Tuesday meetings will be more focused on Christian Education and Group Discussion, we will have tons of opportunities to get together, have fun and share in Gods love everything from bowling nights and book club to tailgating, to Movie Nights and Halloween Costume Parties.

Parent & Volunteer Involvement: Every Christian teenager needs an extended family of Christian adults- adults who can be a part of the cloud of witnesses that cheers him or her on. And the church should be the primary vehicle through which teenagers are exposed to adults who make up their extended family of Christ. We want to be a part of that extended family and invite you to be as well for all the youth of Christ Episcopal Church. The youth ministry staff is just the tip of the iceberg in being able to reach out to the youth. We are blessed to be entrusted with wonderful volunteers here at Christ Episcopal Church, from parents driving and preparing food for EYC events to volunteers of all ages taking the time to get to know our youth individually and being part of their "cloud of witnesses". We are all called to lay a spiritual foundation for them and to help them grow into mature Christian adults. We invite you to be part of this journey with one or more young people and to realize that this investment of time is such an important ministry. Please contact our office to find out ways that you can be apart of our cloud of witnesses.
