The goal of our youth ministry program is to give youth a space and a community to belong to, as they grow in their relationship with God. By studying Scripture, seeing Christ in one another, serving others, and acting as the hands and feet of Christ in the world, our youth seek to deepen their faith and share God’s love with others.

What happens on Sunday mornings?

Junior and Senior High School Students, grades 6-12:  LIFT (Live in Faith Together)
On a typical Sunday morning during the program year, our JR & SR high school students gather at the Sturtz House at 9:00 am.  They are invited to Holy Eucharist for the 10 am service. Discussions inlcude the scripture readings of the day, and how it can apply to their lives.  This program also strives to create a safe space for our high school students to be themselves.
