Youth and Youth Group
Middle School
Trinity’s 5th, 6th, 7th & 8th graders meet Sunday mornings from 9:45am to 10:45am for fun, fellowship, food and religious investigation. Our youth room is where we explore our faith together with our peers and adult teachers who rotate leading and facilitating the class. The curriculum used to instigate discussions and learn the word of God is The Thoughtful Christian, which incorporates games, music, media, art work, role playing and service or sharing. Overnight and community activities are coordinated with events sponsored by the Episcopal Diocese of Connecticut and the Town of Branford’s ecumenical community.
High School
Classes and activities are designed for all high school youth regardless of confirmation status or intent. Exploring our faith is a life long endeavor and one never graduates from spiritual growth! High school youth at Trinity are asked to be a part of worship and service ministries that fit their interests and areas of concern. For high school students not yet confirmed, a program called Confirm Not Conform (CnC) is offered.
This nine (9) month long program helps youth determine what they believe or want to explore further in their spiritual journeys. The program includes: 1 information night, 16 classes, 1 retreat weekend, 2-3 field trips, 3 required special worship services or holy week services, a service project, a mentor relationship with another church member, and a confirmation rehearsal, service and celebration.
For more information please visit www.confirmnotconform.com.
Youth Group
The alumnae of the Confirm not Conform class invite all young people, middle school and high school to join them for monthly gatherings. They meet on third Sundays at 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm. They always include something to think about, something to do and something to eat!
