Wednesday Night Youth Group - The Journey
The youth (grades 6 through 12) have named their group, “The Journey.” This vibrant gathering of young people meets every Wednesday evening from 5:30 to 7:00 to journey through an evening of fun, food, and fellowship while learning Bible stories and how they apply to their journeys of faith. Adult sponsors for the group are Desiree Dunn, JP Dunn, and Brenda Hancock. Along the journey, they feed their bodies with a quick meal, then feed their souls with a message, and finish out the evening with games or crafts to help feed their minds. They also meet at other times for service projects to help out with needs in our church and the surrounding community, as well as fun trips to explore the world around us. including a summer journey to Montreat Conference Center in North Carolina to enjoy a fun-filled, spirit-filled week with youth from across the United States.

Montreat Youth Conference
Montreat Youth Conferences are special events –a gathering of Presbyterian young people from all over the country for a week of study, worship and recreation.

- Small group meetings (where the conference theme is explored)
- Afternoon recreation activities and other options (Wednesday afternoon is free)

Retreats
FPC youth have the opportunity to participate in camps and retreats so they may have time to reflect and deepen their faith away from their daily routines. These opportunities allow the FPC youth to strengthen their relationships within the group and with other Christian youth throughout the Presbytery and the country. See Financial Assistance
