Trivia Night
Trivia Night has been a fundraiser for the youth
for many years. Each spring we come together
for fun, laughter and a time of generous hearts
so our Youth can continue going on mission trips and conferences each summer. Due to the the pandemic our 2020, 2021 & 2022 dates were cancelled.
We will host Trivia Night on March 11th, 2023 .
Email Audra - audraw@fpccolumbia.org for more information.
An online auction was held with some our donated items that we didn't want to expire. We are holding onto the other donated items for our March 11th, 2023 auction event.

Events, Trips & Workdays
Our youth take summer missions trips, participate in camps and conferences as well as local mission projects throughout the year. During this past year, our youth cleaned up the Bear Creek Head Start playgrounds (twice), helped serve at Loaves and Fishes, and met at Cosmo Park & Fairview Shelter for youth events. Many of our youth participated in our Art in the Park events at COSMO Park. We also provide a water station at the Heart of America Marathon on Labor Day and baked cookies for shut ins. Midway Golf & Games was the site of our FPC Youth fun night where we ate pizza, played mini golf, drove go karts and enjoyed yard games.
Our youth have attended Presbyterian Youth Triennium and joined many other youth for a fun-filled, spiritually powerful week! Many also traveled to Pine Ridge, SD to work with the local Native American population!
We feel these experiences, along with worship and study are essential to the faith development of our youth!
Unfortunately, Presbyterian Youth Triennium for 2022 has been cancelled. This summer we are offering various camp opportunities and are planning to have various summer activities.
Come and join us!
