Youth Formation - Middle & High School
We use slightly modified Rite 13 and J2A curricula. Teams of laity help teach the Sunday school classes. In addition to Sunday school, there are both service and social events that happen monthly. There are also opportunities to gather with other youth from the diocese of NC. Visit the Youth Ministry web site of the Episcopal Diocese of NC.
We want our youth to feel at home and comfortable in church on Sunday mornings, and we encourage them to be involved in our Sunday liturgies as acolytes, ushers, lay readers, chalice bearers and members of the choir.
We emphasize full participation for all in the life of the church, involving our young people in education, worship, fellowship and ministry. As they mature, their needs and questions change. St. Alban’s is a place where questions about the faith and about God are encouraged.
The High School and Middle School Youth meet separately on Sunday mornings for education from 9:15-10:15 a.m.
