YOUTH

Our youth represent not only the future of our church community but also the present. Our youth often collect the offering, read scripture during worship, and serve on the Session (the governing body of our church).

YOUTH GROUP (byg)

Our youth are part of a combined youth group called BYG (Birmingham Youth Group): a partnership between the youth groups from Edgewood, Southminster, Oakmont Chapel, and other area PC(USA) churches. BYG meets weekly (on Sunday evenings from 4–6pm) for food, fellowship, and fun! The location for BYG meetings changes periodically, with most meetings taking place either at Edgewood (in Homewood) or Southminster (in Vestavia Hills). For all questions regarding BYG, please email Peyton Chandler (pchandler@fpcbham.org).

OTHER ACTIVITIES

Our high school students travel each summer for the Montreat Youth Conference in Montreat, North Carolina. Middle School students go to the Montreat Middle School Conference at Maryville College in Tennessee. Our youth also attend local Presbytery retreats, serve on the Presbytery Youth Council, and have mission experiences.
