H.Y.P.E. SUNDAY gives students in 6th, 7th, and 8th Grade the opportunity to practice putting their faith into action. They give back to our church community by leading a worship service and then help spread God's love in the afternoon with both on-and offsite service projects. It truly is an awesome experience!

Many youth

say H.Y.P.E. Sunday is

their favorite part of the year―

they even get a free T-shirt!

The second Sunday of the month, certain confirmation small groups are assigned to participate in the 11:00 AM service in the Sanctuary. Youth can sing, play in the band, and do a skit, or read lessons and prayers. 

After worship, small groups eat bag lunches with their guides and then go out to do a service project together. Some past projects included playing bingo at a nursing home, cleaning low income housing, and playing games with children at a homeless shelter.  Everyone is back at the church by 3:30 PM

Parents get a postcard and a phone call from their student's guide the week before HYPE Sunday letting them know where their son or daughter will be serving.
