Age-appropriate classes take place every Sunday at 10 am on the second and third floor of the church. Children and youth are encouraged to explore faith issues with their teachers and with one another. We are excited about the vibrant group of youth who call FCC their home and hope that this page will enable youth and their families to stay up-to-date with all manner of youth “happenings” that occur throughout each month.

SUNDAY NIGHT YOUTH GROUP
Youth Groups meet from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm on Sunday nights. During this time, 3rd-12th grade youth play games, eat supper together and then participate in total group lessons or split into three age groups for specific age-appropriate lessons. The age group splits are:

Junior Youth Fellowship (JYF): 3-5th grade
Chi-Rho: 6-8th grade
Christian Youth Fellowship (CYF): 9-12th grade

CROSS Training
Periodically, the youth of First Christian Church Fayetteville) participate in special activities with the youth groups of FCC Bentonville and FCC Rogers through the CROSS Training program. Activities have included lock-ins, Corn Maze trips, and other special seasonal gatherings and mission projects.

WEEKEND RETREATS
Through the Great River Region of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) our youth participate in weekend-long mission trips and youth rallies throughout the school year. Retreats take place at Camp Couchdale (outside Hot Springs, AR) and mission weekends have taken place throughout Mississippi and Louisiana. These weekends help provide a time for youth to “recharge” their faith amidst the stresses of the school year.

SUMMER CAMPS & CONFERENCES
Summer camps and conferences for all age groups (K-12) take place at Camp Couchdale (outside Hot Springs, AR). These camps are amazing times for fellowship, growth, new friendships and faith development for youth of all ages!!
