8th Grade Confirmation
Confirmation is a unique experience for 8th graders at MPPC. Our youth are able to seek out new and meaningful insights to their faith and what is means to be a part of the body of Christ Sunday morning classes, small group discussions, and service opportunities.
Most classes meet during the Sunday School hour (9:45-10:45 AM) in Grace Hall 221/223/225, with additional outings and/or meetings that include one evening meeting with Session, a couple of church visits, and a retreat. Young people will receive a NRSV Study Bible from the church at the beginning of the program.
Trips & Retreats for Middle and High School
TRIPS & RETREATS – MIDDLE SCHOOL
Trips and Retreats at MPPC seek to strengthen the community of faith through fellowship, recreation, study, and serving our neighbors here at home and around the world. Whether it is growing in faith through the Montreat Middle School Conference at Maryville College or taking on the zip line at Awanita Valley Christian Retreat Center, it is a response to God’s grace and claim on our lives.
SUMMER RETREATS – HIGH SCHOOL
Summer Trips keep the high school youth very busy. For our first summer trip, we head up to the mountains of North Carolina for a week to participate in the Montreat Youth Conference. At the end of the summer, eight to ten of our youth join a group of adults and fly down to Tegucigalpa, Honduras to work with the LAMB Institute.
