YOUTH FORMATION
St. Barnabas organizes activities, camps, and retreats for youth. You don't need to be a member of the church to participate. The goal of this group is to engage 7th – 12th graders in becoming the leaders of the future, empower them, and help them create meaningful relationships within the church.
If you'd like more information about our youth ministries, email Slocomb Reed, Youth and Family Ministries.
Jr. High Class:
6th–8th Grade
This is a great age to open the door for questioning our faith and developing a personal relationship with God. Through our Episcopal-based curriculum, Lesson Plans that Work, we will encourage our Jr. High youth to challenge their faith and discover why they believe in God. We welcome all of our rising 6th Graders into Jr. High Sunday School and can't wait for them to share their own questions, thoughts and revelations.

Sr. High Class:
9th–12th Grade
Our most advanced Sunday School Class for youth we continue to challenge each other through lively discussions about current events and how they relate to the bible. Our fantastic team of teachers create a place where all are encouraged to give their opinions. Everyone is accepted and all are welcome to strengthen their faith through questioning how God can work in our lives each week.

Church School Teachers
Help minister to our children and youth, and teach Church School in any class from Pre-K through 12th grade. As part of a team, no one is obligated to teach every week. Teachers are provided a curriculum, materials or supplies for the lesson. As a prerequisite, Church School teachers are required to take Safe Church Training

Confirmation Class
Candidates make a public affirmation of their faith, recommit themselves to the responsibilities of their baptism, and receive laying on of hands by the bishop. Confirmation is open to 7th Graders through adults, and classes are scheduled every two years, generally in the fall.
Next confirmation date:
