Our worship service includes a time for the child in all of us, where children are invited to come forward and engage in a conversation tailored to their age. Then, we offer a Sunday school class for elementary and early-middle school aged children. In this group, children share the joys and sorrows of their weeks, learn Bible stories, and explore what it means to be Christian community.

We hold social events periodically for middle and high school youth and offer Confirmation classes every few years as needed. Many of our children and youth attend retreats and summer camps at La Foret Conference and Retreat Center in Black Forest, CO. These events are further opportunities to connect with other UCC youth and deepen their faith formation.

Music has always been a very integral part of worship at Sixth Avenue. Our organ is a two-manual, 10-rank Reuter Pipe Organ. It is the 342nd organ built by the Reuter Organ Company of Lawrence Kansas; it was installed in our church in 1929. There are only four older Reuter Pipe Organs in Colorado. The piano in our sanctuary is a 6 1/2-foot Baldwin Grand Piano.

Our music program is led by Kyle Bradley.
