Journey to Adulthood (grades 6-12) – Rite-13, J2A, YAC. Trinity uses The Journey to Adulthood Program to engage youth. The study and prayer components in Sunday morning classes develop a sense of community and fellowship. The program's main themes are that adulthood is earned or learned, that manhood and womanhood are gifts from God, and we choose how we use our creative power, not only to create life but also to shape the world according to God's purpose. The Sunday morning classes are enhanced through a variety of social activities apart from classes. In time the young people are empowered to recognize and create opportunities to reach out and serve. In addition, the youth are invited to participate in such diocesan events as New Beginnings, Happening, Jr. and Sr. High Conferences, Acolyte Festival, Mission Camp, and summer camps at St. Crispin's, our diocesan Retreat Center. Involvement is available at regional and national youth events. Ultimately we hope to provide a strong foundation from which the youth of Trinity can see and serve Christ in all persons and consequently live a life of compassion. Are you a youth looking for spiritual inspiration? Check out this website for Episcopal Teens: http://www.myfaithmylife.org.
