St. Stephen’s Church has an active and vibrant Youth Program which engages youth grades 6-12 in a variety of spiritual, social, and service opportunities.  

In addition to weekly worship and participation in periodic service projects, “overnights” and retreats, our High School youth spend each year in enthusiastic preparation for their annual participation in a Group Workcamp!   Each year approximately 20 high school youth from St. Stephen’s join our Workcamp team, and prepare for the “Workcamp Experience” through monthly meetings and fundraisers.   At Workcamp, youth have the opportunity to deepen their friendships and relationship with God, while providing much needed home repairs for needy families and individuals.   For more information on the Workcamp program, visit www.groupworkcamps.com

Confirmation Preparation for Youth (Grades 8 and up) begins each year in September, and continues through mid-June.   The Confirmation Preparation program at St. Stephen’s focuses on an exploration of the Baptismal Covenant, and requires students to participate in a variety of classes, worship services, retreats, and service projects.   In order to most fully support youth and families in the program, parents of Confirmation students participate in a concurrent “Adult Commitment” class. `
