Children, Youth & Family Programs
Children and Youth search for a spiritual identity all their own. At Middle Collegiate Church, we create a safe space where they can question, express, and explore their concerns about identity, responsibility, friendship, peer pressure, and how God fits into their lives.
At Middle Church, we know that we have a role in raising socially conscious, revolutionary lovers. We use Biblical narratives and other stories to teach values such as kindness, love, service, caring for others, generosity, living in community, and the importance of creating a just world. We use the arts extensively to enhance how children and youth learn, and we embody intersectional, progressive theology in all that we teach our young folks. And, more often than not, they end up teaching us quite a deal, too!
We provide both weekly, biweekly, and quarterly offerings for the entire family! Our offerings are hybrid.
For questions, please email Elise Tiralli. You can also subscribe to our monthly Families newsletter and join our Facebook group where we post interactive videos and crafts.
