Teens
Youth Groups In addition to offering great youth
programs, Trinity offers many opportunities for Parish teens and their friends, to earn community service hours to meet school requirements. Some of the opportunities that fit the
"Community Volunteer Requirements" include jointly organizing and staffing a pancake supper fundraiser, manning a candy table at Trinity's Annual Christmas Bazaar, assisting Sunday
School Teachers, helping direct cars parking during the Scituate Art Festival, assisting in our Food Closet and Thrift Shop. At Trinity Episcopal Church KIDS MATTER HERE! On top of
offering volunteer opportunities, our Youth can get together with other area teens socially for game nights, Christmas caroling, movies, etc. Journey To Adulthood Program This six-year program for 11 to 17 year olds is one of the more exciting faith formation programs for youth available today. It was developed
to attract, instruct and nurture young people at the time in their lives when they are most likely to drift away from the Church.
The program is built around three distinct phases of development, each encompassing two years:
- Rite 13
(11 to 13 year olds) recognizes the passage from childhood to manhood and womanhood.
MORE INFO
Journey to Adulthood (J2A) works with 14 to 15 year olds as they practice adulthood skills and positive life attitudes. MORE INFO
