Youth Ministry
In addition to the opportunities listed under Christian Education and Music, First Church has active Junior and Senior High Fellowships. Both groups meet primarily on Sundays, September - June, from 7:00 - 8:30 p.m. A staff of energetic, well-trained adults leads the Youth Fellowships.
Fellowship programs include four basic elements: outreach, worship, learning, and recreation. A given meeting may focus on just one of these elements, or involve all four. The goal is to reach a balance during the program year.
First church also sponsors a basketball team in the Nashua YMCA Church League. Junior and Senior High young people are eligible to tryout for the team. The season runs from December through March.
