Baking for the Cookie Walk - Lower Gathering Space

The FVPC Youth Group is hosting the Christmas Cookie Walk fundraiser again this year! This popular event will take place the weekend of December 6.    

If you wish to support our youth by baking a couple dozen (or more) cookies for the Cookie Walk, you may pick up a cookie container from the Lower Gathering Space starting today. Please fill out the Cookie Information Sheet on top of the cookie container (letting us know the kind, ingredients, if they contain nuts, etc.).

Please plan on dropping off your cookies on the rolling cart outside the church office, 9:00 am-4:00 pm on Friday, December 5. If you need to arrange a different drop-off time, please email the church office to make arrangements.

The more variety of cookies we can offer at the Cookie Walk the better - so keep this in mind when planning your baking. Looking for some new recipes? Check out this resource. Questions? Email Karen Peruba.

Baking for the Cookie Walk - Lower Gathering Space

The FVPC Youth Group is hosting the Christmas Cookie Walk fundraiser again this year! This popular event will take place the weekend of December 6.    

If you wish to support our youth by baking a couple dozen (or more) cookies for the Cookie Walk, you may pick up a cookie container from the Lower Gathering Space starting today. Please fill out the Cookie Information Sheet on top of the cookie container (letting us know the kind, ingredients, if they contain nuts, etc.).

Please plan on dropping off your cookies on the rolling cart outside the church office, 9:00 am-4:00 pm on Friday, December 5. If you need to arrange a different drop-off time, please email the church office to make arrangements.

The more variety of cookies we can offer at the Cookie Walk the better - so keep this in mind when planning your baking. Looking for some new recipes? Check out this resource. Questions? Email Karen Peruba.

Organizer for this event: Karen Peruba

Fall youth retreat - Stronghold Camp and Conference Center

This year’s middle and high school retreat will be a fun-filled day trip to Stronghold Camp and Conference Center in Oregon, Illinois! Our youth will join others from across the Presbytery for a day of connection, team building, and adventure on Saturday, November 8.

 We’ll plan to leave around 9:00 am (exact time will be shared closer to the date) and return before midnight. We’ll carpool from church to the retreat and back home, with the possibility of drop-offs on the way for those who live west of church.

 The cost this year is $25.00 per student, which includes lunch, dinner, and plenty of fun activities like archery, team-building challenges, and a bonfire to close out the day. The event is accessible, and scholarships are available—just reach out to Kelly Pearce to make arrangements.

 ✅ Deadline to register: October 17th

To attend, participants must complete all of the following:

  1. RSVP to Kelly Pearce by email or text at kellyhpearce@gmail.com or 630-723-7938.

  2. Complete the Stronghold Liability Waiver download here.

  3. Complete the Youth Program Registration Form online here.

  4. Submit payment of $25.00 per student (non-refundable). Payment may be made through the church’s giving page by selecting “Stronghold” from the dropdown, or by check payable to "FVPC" dropped off in the church office along with the printed waiver.

 👉 Additional Chaperone Needed: We currently have one chaperone confirmed but will need at least one additional parent volunteer to help drive and join us for the day. If you would like to help, please email or text at kellyhpearce@gmail.com or 630-723-7938.

 We can’t wait for this awesome day together—having fun and making great memories!

 The Youth Ministry Team

First Sunday Breakfast - Youth Lounge

Middle school and high school youth gather for breakfast and fellowship on the first Sunday of the month in the Youth Lounge, 9:00-10:00 am. Our class time usually centers on a discussion of the Scripture verses for worship. Occasionally, we will use this time to help prepare for church-wide activities such as our pancake breakfast or Souper Bowl of Caring. The atmosphere is always relaxed and youth are welcome to join in discussions as much or as little as they are comfortable with! No advance preparation is ever needed and newcomers are always welcome.
