First Christian Church

Youth Ministries

In addition to our Sunday morning classes, we offer youth groups that typically meet for special activities on Sunday afternoons.  Youth group activities include a variety of study, service, fellowship and FUN!  Youth groups allow teens and pre-teens time to further explore our relationship with God, our World, Our Families and OURSELVES in an informal setting.

Youth Groups:

Junior Youth Fellowship (JYF) - Grades 3-5 (meet monthly)

Chi-Rho - Grades 6-8

Christian Youth Fellowship (CYF) - Grades 9-12  (may serve as junior deacons)

 

We participate in local and regional ecumenical youth events.  We attend our denomination's regional retreats and summer camps. In addition, we offer family fun events throughout the year for the entire family!

Vacation Bible School:

We have a very well planned and attended VBS program each summer. This is one of our major outreach activities for the city of Casper.

Pumpkin Patch

This is a unique ministry of FCC started in 2004. The Patch is open daily every October in the weeks prior to Halloween. Our Youth Groups help host this event and proceeds from the Patch go to help our youth in various outdoor ministries in the summer. In the summer of 2006, our high school youth went on a Mission Trip to help with hurricane relief in New Orleans.  In 2010, our youth participated in the "International Affairs Seminar" trip to Washington D.C. and New York City to learn about the issue of human trafficking.  In July of 2012, we will be taking a mission trip to St. Louis to experience "inner city" ministry.

We have one of the oldest and largest Boy Scout programs in Casper. Cubs meet at 6 pm and Boy Scout at 7 pm on Monday evenings. The boys and thier families participate in all district activities including camping, Pinewood and Klondike Derby, Snow Day and annual BSA summer camps.
