Youth & Service
Christian service at Wilton Congregational Church brings us closer to God and each other, changing lives along the way. Students discover that we’re all equally loved and worthy as God’s children.
Kids spread joy by sharing blessings through projects like packing gift boxes for foster kids, fundraising for Thanksgiving meals, and sending Valentines to veterans. Teens have their own service activities, preparing meals for soup kitchens and partnering with local organizations. On Youth Mission Trips, our teens work hard to repair homes, replant gardens, and embrace the communities they serve.
Youth Mission Trip
Mission Trips provide an opportunity for Wilton Congregational youth to put faith into action. On our annual Youth Mission Trip, teens travel to communities where God is already at work helping to transform lives and change the world. Our youth get the chance to embody Christ’s call to serve others and live into the beloved community. Youth Mission Trip experiences are formative and enduring. Working in adult-led teams, teens rise early and work throughout the day to repair homes, replant gardens, and integrate into the community. Together, teens and their partner community explore faith in a rich and transformative exchange. For details, contact Rev. Caroline Ainsworth Hughes at caroline@wiltoncongregational.org or through the church office at 203-762-5591.
