 Special Youth Events
Our Whole Lives (OWL) - Our Whole Lives is a curriculum developed by the UCC to help people of all ages understand and take control of their own bodies and sexuality. We offer this age-appropriate curriculum to 8th graders during a weekend retreat.
Mission Trips - At least two mission trips are planned each year. Middle School Youth take an in-state trip during the school year, and Senior High Youth take a week long trip during the summer to somewhere outside of Colorado. In 2008 the Senior High Youth went to New Orleans and worked on two houses and a church that were damaged in Hurricane Katrina. The Middle School Youth provided trail maintenance at Lily Pad Lake, Colorado. In addition, First Plymouth sponsors other special events for youth including lock-ins, pool parties, camping trips, summer programs, and movie nights. Click here for current youth happenings.
