Youth



basecamp-summit_506At St. C’s, we want our high schoolers to feel known and valued for who they are, no matter what. Our hope is that when kids leave the St. C’s youth program, they know that God loves them, and the church needs them. To that end, we’re focused on providing a blend of opportunities for kids in each aspect of the church’s life: learning, fellowship, worship leadership, and service to neighbor.

We have two primary youth programs for teens. Our middle schoolers (6th-8th grade) meet each week during the school year for BaseCamp and our high schoolers (9th-12th grade) meet for Summit. Both groups meet from 10:15am - 11:05am at the church (middle schoolers in room 220, high schoolers in room 203 - both on the second floor). Throughout the year, we also host a variety of special events and activities, including the Rite 13 ceremony, youth pilgrimages, and an annual service trip to West Virginia.

BaseCamp and Summit are open to all youth, including those who are new to St. C’s or church in general. Wherever you are on your journey of faith, you are welcome here. We would love to meet you!

    My name is Mitchell Felton and I am a rising senior at the Trade School by the Potomac (Virginia Theological Seminary) I am hoping to become a better Pastor, Preacher, and friend this summer and can't think of a better place than St. Columba's to do this at. I am looking forward to our summer adventure together!

    The opposite of faith is not doubt, but certainty. ~ Anne Lamott

    Joining a church doesn’t mean you don’t have big questions or doubts. Deciding to be part of a loving community of faith means you’re open to exploring and wrestling with those big questions and doubts. Most people here did not grow up in The Episcopal Church. Some have never been a member of any church. Many have a background in a different church or faith tradition. At St. Columba’s, there will be many opportunities to learn, ask questions, and get to know other pilgrims along the way. Our deepest hope is that everyone who steps through our doors knows they belong here.

    A pledge is a promise - a promise to give a certain amount over the course of the following year. We don’t expect you to fulfill your pledge in one lump gift. Many find they can give more when pledging and then giving incrementally over the course of the year.

    Pledging before the start of each calendar year is critical for clergy and staff to develop an annual budget and plan to serve you and our wider community.

    Why Give? God asks us to share our time, talent and treasure. A life of generosity is at the root of Christianity. The Bible encourages the tithe – or 10% of your annual income – and we encourage you to think about what a meaningful gift would be for you.

    When you give to St. Columba’s you help fund our ministry in the community, our worship, and the staff that supports our community as we strive to Live God’s Love.

    Our mission is funded by you – St. Columbans and other supporters.

    Give Now

    St. Columba’s is grateful for your generosity. We accepts gifts in the form of cash, checks, appreciated stocks, Charitable IRA Rollovers, Donor Advised Gifts, and matching gifts. If you would like to include us in your end-of-life charitable gift plans, we accept bequests, life income gifts, and gifts of special assets (real estate, closely held stock, life insurance).
