Youth

St. Mary’s Youth Ministry

St. Mary’s youth ministry provides a loving community that leads and supports youth on their faith journeys and energizes them to extend the love of Christ to the world.

Our Offerings for Youth

We celebrate our youth’s personal and spiritual milestones while offering them a comfortable place to just be themselves.

Have questions? Contact our Director of Youth Formation for more details.

Sunday School

Sunday school meets at 10 a.m. on Sunday mornings to have discussions, ask questions, and think deeply about faith together.

Sunday school meets in the Education Building at the back of the campus. All youth in grades 6-12 are invited to our youth events — as are their friends!

Youth Group

The youth group meets twice a month on Sunday evenings at 5 p.m. for fellowship, games, and dinner.

We generally will alternate between large group gatherings and the church’s monthly family worship and potluck. No matter where we are or what we are doing, youth group events are always a fun and meaningful time of connection!

Confirmation

Members of the parish who are in 8th grade or above are invited to join this year’s confirmation class. The deadline to register is September 29.

This is an opportunity to grow in faith, learn about the Episcopal tradition, and develop meaningful connections with peers and church members.

Mission Trips

Middle School Trip: Rising 6th-8th graders

Harvest of Hope | Fayetteville, N.C.

We partner with the organization Harvest of Hope to learn about the issue of hunger and how we are called to assist our neighbors in need July 8-11, 2026.

In the mornings, we work in the fields together to glean vegetables to donate to local food banks. What we glean will likely be on the dinner table within 24 hours!

The registration deadline is February 27 and the fee is $350.

Please register at the button below by February 27 and submit a $50 deposit to secure your spot. Space is limited at the facility where we will stay, and it may not be possible to add participants after this date. To pay your $50 non-refundable deposit, make a one-time gift to the general fund here, and note “middle school mission trip registration” and the first and last name of your youth in the memo line.
