COS Celebrates Our Teens in Rite 13 Ceremony on May 4th

This year Church of Our Saviour started its Journey to Adulthood program, designed for Episcopal young adults. We are celebrating eleven of our youth group participants this spring. Part of a special curriculum, “Rite 13” will formally observe a milestone ceremony around these young adults’ 13th birthday, to celebrate the transition from childhood to adulthood. We recognize the importance of helping our young people appreciate their growth and progress as they move toward adulthood.

On Sunday, May 4th, during the 10 am service we’ll celebrate this significant time with our teens and honor the gifts of adulthood freely given by God. These gifts are part of the very essence of who we are. As we grow and mature on our journey, our skills and understanding expand, but that core of who we are — created and loved by God — remains constant.

Please keep these teens (Camille, Eleanor, Gavin, Grace, Heidi, Helena, Joseph, Maggie, Noel, Sophia, and Summer) in your prayers as they prepare for this life-affirming ceremony.
