Encounter is the High School Youth Group and Confirmation Preparation Program at Christ the Redeemer. We provide faith formation for our students as they journey towards Confirmation. We are a small group based model where we keep students together in the same group for the duration of their time with us. We split groups by biological sex and high school.
Students start Confirmation prep as early as 9th grade and are confirmed no sooner than tenth grade.
Encounter is open to all students grades 9-12. Whether you have been confirmed or not, if you are in high school this is for you!
However, students wishing to be confirmed, must be entered in Encounter.
Each week we meet as a large group and listen to the talk for the night and pray. We then break into small groups to discuss and apply the subject to our lives. The groups are as varied as we have people but we all are seeking Christ together.
At Encounter we have students from all the schools in CFISD as well as many from Catholic schools, Tomball, Waller and those who are homeschooled. We also have some of the coolest adults around who come each week to share and lead our small groups.
Each of our small groups is no larger that 12 students, who for the most part, attend the same school.
Encounter is a great place to come and have an encounter. Faith is an encounter with the person of Jesus Christ. Whether it is through the message shared, a conversation with a core team member, or another high school student, we come each Sunday to have an encounter with Christ. Come to be fed. Come and see. Come to Encounter.
