EPISCOPAL YOUTH COMMUNITY (EYC)

Offering the youth of our church a place to grow into themselves

The Episcopal Youth Community (EYC) is for 6th-12th graders. The All Saints EYC program offers the youth of the church a place to grow into themselves in a Christian community while building a relationship with God. It is our goal to provide students an experience in order for them to grow in Christ and to serve God and others. This is accomplished through our programs and fellowship. Connect with Grace Turner, gturner@allsaintsbhm.org

On Sunday mornings, 6th graders meet with our Children's Formation program in the atrium that is down the ramp past the Great Hall. They will engage in scripture and biblical lessons. This age group then meets along with 7th-12th graders at Sunday Night EYC.

7th-12th graders meet in the Youth Room, which is up the stairs by the main lobby.

Junior High Sunday School (7th-8th) uses the two year Rite 13 and Journey to Adulthood curriculum plan, which has an underlying three-part structure: Spirituality, Society, and Self. These reflect the Christian call to love God and to love our neighbors as ourselves.

Senior High Sunday School (9th-12th) will use the curriculum, TeenText! TeenText promotes discussion, critical thinking and creative listening. The goal of this curriculum is to encourage youth to take a deep look into bible stories and connect it to the world around us. We will gather and eat breakfast in the youth rooms!

Junior High (6th-8th)

5:00pm-6:45pm

Senior High (9th-12th)

6:00pm-8:00pm

During the time overlap, our junior high and senior high youth eat dinner and do compline (evening prayer) together. We have a different program topic each week for EYC, but we always incorporate time for games and fellowship and builds on the importance of community, church and fellowship!
