Youth Ministry
Middle school and high school are major times of transition for students. We want to partner with youth and their parents during these years to provide a place for students to feel safe, grow in their relationship with God, have fun, and make memories that will last a lifetime.
On Sundays at 10 am the Chi-Rho and CYF meet for Sunday School, which is located on the third floor. We are currently using a curriculum called Fathom: A Deep Dive into the Story of God - The Bible: Where It Came From and How to Read It. We would love for you to join us!
Youth Events
Throughout the year, our middle schoolers (Chi Rho) and high schoolers (CYF) gather for a wide array of events ranging from service projects to team building activities around the city of Raleigh. We spend quality time together in prayer, worship, study, and conversation. Contact our Associate Minister
of Spiritual Growth here if you are interested in more information about Youth happenings throughout the year.
mission trips
God calls us to love and serve our neighbors, and we believe there is nothing more important than putting our faith into action through a variety of mission opportunities throughout the year. A few Hillyer favorites include Appalachia Service Project (ASP) and Raleigh Youth Mission (RYM).

camps and retreats
Camps, conferences, and retreats are provided through the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in North Carolina at Camp Caroline. Retreats are held twice a year for both CYF and Chi-Rho and during the summer there is an opportunity for each group to attend camp. In addition, CYF has a leadership opportunity for youth and adults with the Regional Cabinet for Youth Work (RCYW). For more information about these opportunities, click here.
