Confirmation

Confirmation is a time for eighth graders to confirm their baptismal vows, explore their faith and claim it as their own, deepen their relationship with God and discover what it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ and part of the Presbyterian tradition. Each youth is partnered with a Confirmation Sponsor, an adult church member outside of their family, with whom they can share their faith and questions.

Ivey Ringers (grades 6th-12th)

REHEARSALS SUNDAY | 4:30-5:15 PM

A handbell ensemble for middle and high school handbell ringers. Our time together will be more than just music-making! Ivey Ringers rehearse weekly and participate in worship and special programs throughout the year. This intermediate handbell choir for youth extends the tradition of Beginning Handbells to more advanced and challenging repertoire. In addition to worship leadership, youth have the opportunity to participate in weekend and summer ministry tours to share the love of Christ to others.

Youth Choir (grades 6th-12th)

REHEARSALS SUNDAY | 5:15-6 PM

Students of all skill levels are welcome to join and bring a friend! Here, youth use their voices to share God’s love, explore their musical abilities, and deepen their faith while building relationships with their peers and discovering what it means to be a leader in the church today through music. We will lead in worship throughout the year and grow together through song. In addition, youth have the opportunity to participate in weekend and summer ministry tours, offering opportunities to worship and play as we grow together in faith, sharing memories that will last a lifetime.
