Youth Co-op September Activities
The Youth Co-op is a safe and loving ecumenical youth group for all students in 6th – 12th grades. We embrace all youth no matter race, abilities, ethnicities, gender identities, expressions, and sexual orientations. We provide opportunities for fun, learning activities, faith and spirituality exploration, and service to the community.
People’s Church Unitarian Universalist partners with the following churches to make the Youth Co-op possible: Lovely Lane United Methodist Church, St. Mark’s United Methodist Church, St. Paul’s United Methodist Church, St. Stephen’s Lutheran Church (ELCA), and Trinity St. James United Methodist Church.
