Youth
The Youth Ministry of The Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd exists to bring young people together in fellowship so they may worship God and act as Disciples of Christ.
EYC
At the core of Good Shepherd Youth Ministry is Episcopal Youth Community (EYC). This is a time of fun, fellowship, and teaching as we explore our faith through games, art, music and more.
Youth Christian Education
Join us on most Sunday mornings from 10:15 to 11:00 am as we study the Bible and the Christian life through reflection and discussion.
Youth in grades 6-8 will meet in Moffett House. Grades 9-12 will meet at Parish Breakfast at their reserved table. Look for the sign.
Acolytes
The Good Shepherd Youth Ministry’s Acolyte Program is open to youth grades 7-12. Youth have the opportunity to assist with the liturgies during different worship services including Holy Eucharist, Baptisms, Confirmations, Marriage ceremonies, Burials, and Ordinations. Acolyte trainings are held periodically throughout the year. If you would like to serve as an Acolyte, please contact Chris Duncan at 476-3523, ext 746.

Youth Confirmation
“Confirmation is the rite in which we express a mature commitment to Christ, and receive strength from the Holy Spirit through prayer and laying on of hands by the Bishop.” (BCP, 860).
Here at Good Shepherd, Youth Confirmation is open to students grade 9 and above. Classes are held annually depending on the visitation schedule of our diocese’s bishops. For more information about Youth Confirmation, contact Chris Duncan, 4776-3523, ext. 746.
