Praise School for Children

Sunday School for Children

Praise School at First United Church of Christ is all about the one most important thing in life: a growing relationship with Jesus. Praise School is for children ages 4 through 5th grade, and the aim is to help children know that they are beloved and part of God’s work in the world. Through meaningful activities, discussion and personal challenges, students take their learning to heart. Our goal is to make these the best hours of your child’s month! Learn more about our Children’s program and register your child for this year.

Spiritual Life Bible Study

Grow in wisdom and faith with us every Tuesday at 9:30 a.m. We read devotionals by Richard Rohr and talk about how people of faith can offer hope in the midst of real challenges facing the world.

A2J Youth Group

Our A2J Youth Group is an active and engaging ministry. 

All middle and high school youth are invited to join the group, which meets every Wednesday at 6pm from September through April at First United Church of Christ. (Though there are a few exceptions, so be sure to check the calendar.)  A2J is a place where youth can do exciting things, make new friends and learn about Jesus in the process.  There’s always room for more, so please invite your friends.  It’s normal to be unsure about your faith, so come as you are!  A2J’s motto is: leave your judgement at the door and make room for Jesus.

Confirmation Class

We invite youth to participate in confirmation every other year at First UCC in Green Bay. Confirmation is an opportunity for youth to build friendships with kids their age, learn to see their lives as part of the unfolding sacred story told in the Bible, ask questions about God and the world, clarify the values that lead to a meaningful life, and join a community of faith. The main focus of the year is equipping young people to demonstrate faith in their own words and actions. Registration will be available when confirmation is next offered.

Mission Trips

Mission trip bus ride

United to Make a Difference is the theme for our youth group’s mission trips.  Every year a group of youth and adult leaders travel to a YouthWorks mission site and serve as the hands and feet of Jesus.  They’ve been to Brooklyn, NY; Martin, SD; Juarez, Mexico; Red Lake, MN; Denver, CO; Sault Ste. Marie, MI; Lake Traverse, SD; Hamlin, WV; Niagara Falls, NY; Harrisburg, PA; Chattanooga, TN; and Logan, WV.

YouthWorks is an interdenominational missions organization that leads youth to serve communities throughout the United States during the summer months.  The trips are open to youth in grades six through graduating seniors.  To learn more about their ministry, please visit their website.  For more information about our youth mission trips, please contain the main office.
