Community Life for Youth and Young Adult

We affirm that our youth and young adults are a vital part of our Christian community.

Youth

Vision Statement:

As junior and senior youth at FMC, we strive to be good examples for the world around us by following Jesus' teachings and reaching out to the community. Through these actions, we endeavour to grow in our faith as Mennonite youth and to support this growth in each other.

In addition to Sunday School classes, we offer the following opportunities:

Youth

Students in Grades 7-12 meet twice-monthly for either a 'hangout night', or a larger off-site activity. Hangout nights can be at the church or at the home of one of our youth. Larger activities may happen with other Edmonton Mennonite Church youth groups. Youth Sponsors and the Youth Ministries Coordinator plan events with input from the youth.

Mentoring

This is an opportunity for youth in Grades 7-12 to be matched with an adult mentor from within the congregation.

Young Adults

Young Adults (post high school to early 30's) meet about three times a year on Sundays after church for pizza, potluck, and excellent conversations.
