The goal of the youth and children's programs at Emmanuel Episcopal Church is to provide for Christian formation, encourage everyday faith in God, service to community, and fellowship with each other in our Anglican tradition.

Junior High and Senior High
The Senior High youth explore faith and spirituality through J2A (Journey to Adulthood) sessions with a special focus on the sacraments and the Book of Common Prayer.  Each summer the group takes a week-long Mission Trip, led by adults.

The Junior High youth gather for scripture study and to deepen their understanding of the role of faith in their lives through Rite 13.  Each summer the group takes a week-long Mission Trip, led by adults.

Elementary Students participate in Sunday School called "FaithQuest".  In addition, each summer we partner with Christ Lutheran Church to host a week-long Vacation Bible School for children aged four through ten years. 

Ahoy there!  Get ready to set sail on our High Seas Vacation Bible School from June 28 to July 2:  This year’s VBS will be at Christ Lutheran Church & will be co-sponsored by Emmanuel.  Registration forms and sign-up sheets have been mailed; extras are available on our bulletin board in the dining room.  If you’ve got questions or already know how you want to help, contact Tricia Copeland (copelandtl@hotmail.com). If you cannot help any other way, please consider pitching in with our afternoon set-up day on Sunday, June 27.  Thank you!
