Junior Youth Program

Location: Cokesbury

Teachers: Maya Jaros & Armon Rafiee

This Year’s Program

The Junior Youth Program will provide a vibrant and welcoming space to explore themes from The Power of the Holy Spirit junior youth book through engaging discussions and hands-on activities.

Participants can express their creativity through art, video making, watercolors, and drama. To build a joyful sense of community, the program will include fun quizzes, small group discussions, and cooperative games.

Evening sessions will feature a movie night, group games, and drama, with room for suggestions from the junior youth themselves. It’s a unique opportunity to connect, grow, and be inspired in a supportive environment that energizes us for the year ahead!

Water Play

Children ages 11–18 will have water play available to them from 4:30 PM to 6:00 PM, which will include a water slide and other inflatable activities designed for getting wet. Please note: there is no pool.

“The institution of the Summer School constitutes a vital and inseparable part of any teaching campaign, and as such ought to be given the full importance it deserves in the teaching plans and activities of the believers.”
