Fall 2025: Student Confirmation informational meeting will be held after the 10 AM service on Sunday, September 21st. Our process includes classroom instruction in the fall on Sunday morning and a faith expression project in the Spring.

Get ready for some awesome nights of food, fun, and real connection! This fall, we’re launching Home Gatherings just for high schoolers — hangouts hosted by church families in their homes.

It’s the perfect chance to kick back, build friendships, and grow in your faith together.

📍Different homes. 💬 Real convo. 🍕 Good food.

Stay tuned — more details coming soon!

In addition to our weekly gathers, we have other special events and social gatherings for students, as well as service opportunities. Event details are included a weekly parent email. If you’re not receiving those emails, please contact Fr. Taylor. You can also follow @COTA_YOUTH on Instagram to stay up to date on our upcoming events!

Parents/guardians: if you have not already, please download and complete the Student Ministry General Consent Form. Once you have completed them, you may bring them by the church office or email them to Fr. Taylor at taylor@apostleseasternshore.org.

At Church of the Apostles (COTA), we believe students thrive when caring adults with a growing faith show up consistently in their lives. That’s the heartbeat of our Student Ministry.

COTA Student Ministry is committed to creating welcoming spaces where middle and high school students can experience authentic community, explore faith, and discover who they are in Christ. As a volunteer, you'll building relationships with our students and walk with them as they grow in both faith and identity.

If you’re passionate about seeing students grow and want to make a lasting impact, we’d love to start a conversation with you. Contact Fr. Taylor Ishii (taylor@apostleseasternshore.org) to begin the volunteer application process.
