Mission: Helping every child recognize and express the Christ Spirit within.

We thank you for the gifts your presence brings to us. We invite you and your children to become a part of Youth Ministry and grow spiritually in an atmosphere that appreciates each child as the unique expression of God.

To best serve the development needs of our children and teenagers, Youth Ministry offers the following classes:

●NURSERY - Red Room

(Younger than 2 years old)

●2-3 YEARS OLD - Multi-Color Room

●4-5 YEARS OLD - Purple Room

●1ST - 2ND GRADES - Green Room

●3RD - 5TH GRADES - Green Room

●UNITEENS - Blue Room

(6th - 8th grades)

●Y.O.U. - Youth of Unity - Orange Room

(9th - 12th grades)

Our nursery is staffed by the same childcare provider each Sunday so that babies, toddlers and parents can be assured of consistent care. All other classes have two teachers who teach two Sundays each month.

Our 1st - 2nd grade and 3rd - 5th grade classes begin the hour in our Assembly Room (Solar Wing - Green Room). Our 2 and 3 years olds and 4 and 5 year olds first meet their teachers in their own rooms, then join everyone in the Assembly Room. Assembly usually consists of an opening prayer, a story (often a Bible story), the love offering and a song. The format varies when we are preparing for a special event such as Family Sunday. After Assembly, each class goes to their own room for a lesson, craft or activity and snack.

The Uniteen and Y.O.U. programs function independently. Both utilize Unity curriculum designed specifically for teenagers.

At the end of the hour, our classes join the adult congregation for the singing of "The Peace Song".
