7 AM Faith Practices in the Family
How do you pray when words become barriers rather than possibilities? When thinking in sentences is too linear to express a rainbow of emotions.

8 AM All the Questions you have about Queer Teenagers but are afraid to ask
Does your young person have LGBTQIA+ friends? Do you have an LGBTQIA+ child? Do you want to know more about walking alongside LGBTQIA+ teenagers?

9 AM Service with a Busy Schedule
In a hectic world with busy schedules how can parents provide their children with opportunities to serve others and instill the values of loving their neighbors?

10 AM Hope Despite the Circumstances
How do we as parents cultivate hope in our kids, given the challenges they face as they make their way in the world? How do we parent faithfully through the pressures of middle and high school?

11 AM Understanding Parental Controls and Your Children’s Devices
Understand the power of Parental Controls, and how having them set can prevent your child from the dangers of the internet: Inappropriate content, strangers, games, privacy concerns, and more.

NOON Truth Telling with your Youth Leaders
Our youth leaders spend countless hours with our youth and have a vantage point of seeing our young people that we do not. They will share about the differences they see between Gen Z and Gen Alpha that just started in youth group this year.
