 TEEN CURRICULUM  

Home Grown: The MCC Teen Curriculum Project
Ministry to families with teens and children is  increasingly critical for every MCC! Come learn about a new curriculum created especially for MCC teens, ages 10-17. The program is designed to: 

  1. Help teens explore questions of faith and life that are common to all adolescents.
  2. Assist teens in making sense of the Bible for themselves.
  3. Allow teens to wrestle honestly with doubt.
  4. Encourage teens to address the special challenges of growing up in a family and community that faces discrimination.
  5. Offer freedom for young people to claim their place as heterosexual, homosexual, or questioning in a predominately LGBT church.

Join us for this institute and discover how to create an effective teen ministry in your congregation, regardless of how small your group may currently be. This program represents our responsibility for the spiritual formation of our future so mark it in your calendar and we will see you there!  Cost: FREE!
Register online for the Teen Curriculum Project.
