Journey to Adulthood

The Journey to Adulthood Program was developed to attract, instruct and nurture young people at the time of their lives when they are most likely to drift away from the Church. The program is based on two key concepts:

• Manhood and Womanhood are gifts from God
• Adulthood must be earned

The program is built around three distinct phases of development, each encompassing two years of the child's life:

• Rite-13 (11-13 year olds) recognizes the passage from childhood to manhood and womanhood.
• J2A works with 13, 14 and 15 year olds as they practice adulthood skills and positive life attitudes.
• Young Adults in the Church (YAC) asks youth to assume the responsibilities of an adult in the church.

Activities for this program include Sunday School, youth group meetings, movie nights, social ministry activities, liturgies pilgrimages and more.
