Youth Ministries
But strive for the greater gifts. And I will show you a still more excellent way.
1 Corinthians 12:31
Youth today are seeking answers. Centered in Jesus Christ, Celtics and Agape provide safe space for spiritual discussion as well as fellowship and fun while developing friendships.
While we'd love to see your youth every week, we understand that life is busy. Agape and Celtics feature "stand alone" lessons and plenty of fun games and activities so your youth will feel comfortable joining us however often works for your family.
Read below about our age specific programs. Please reach out to Matt Miller, Director of Youth Ministries with any questions you may have.
Please complete the '23-'24 Children & Youth Registration Form so we are sure to have the most up to date emergency contact information. Email to Cherstin or drop off in the Faith Formation mailbox.

Agape:

Confirmation:
The beginning of a lifelong faith journey
8th Graders
Meets most Sundays during the school year 11:00am-noon
Christianity is a way of life. Choosing this way of life requires thoughtful inquiry. So our confirmation class is designed for free and open discussions about the Bible, Sacraments, the Trinity, and all other matters of faith that 8th Graders are curious about. Discoveries are made and deep friendships begun! If you or your 8th Grader would like more information, contact Pastor Ed.
