Youth Ministry

About us:
Welcome to the new, and ever-improving web page for the Youth Ministry program at the First Congregational Church of Gray. The purpose of youth programming is to help provide for the enrichment and edification of the young people; not only within our church, but for all youth within our community. We encourage members and guests to explore their Personal, Spiritual, Recreational, Social, and Doctrinal values, and we provide a positive and exciting environment in which they can nurture those values and be closer to God.

We are beginning this year with an updated format, which we hope will encourage appropriate discussion amongst our youth, and allow for age-oriented activities. The leadership team is pleased to welcome Rose Stansfield to our team this year. Her and Jeff Ferguson will lead our Middle School group in various activities and events geared at spiritual enlightenment. Michael and Jan Mills will lead our High School students in deep, reflectional discussion and age-appropriate events. Don't worry though, Jeff will still be there to pull double-duty and offer his charm to the discussion as well. As your leadership team, we hope you - our students and families alike - will offer us your suggestions and ideas. This is your youth group. Your church. Please grab a friend and join us on September 11th or 12th for discussion, games, pizza and fun as we kick off our most exciting year yet!
