Youth & Family

Ministry

Youth & Family Ministry exists not only for the youth in your family, but also the adults!

Sure many of our faith formation opportunities are for youth, from Confirmation on Wednesday nights to High School Ministry on Sunday nights. But we also exist to bring families into faith formation, through conversation starters to book studies.

See what we have for your youth and find opportunities for you as a parent/guardian to form your own faith as well!

Forms and Volunteer Opportunities

Check out the list below for upcoming events and sign-ups!

Welcome to our Youth & Family Ministry! We’re excited to invite you and your family to join us in a variety of events and activities designed to build faith, foster community, and create lasting memories. Whether it’s through service projects, fun outings, or meaningful worship experiences, there’s something for everyone to enjoy and grow together in faith. Our ministry is all about bringing families closer to each other and to God, and we can’t wait to have you be a part of our vibrant and welcoming community!

Youth & Family Ministries at First Lutheran Church

Our Middle School Ministry includes our Confirmation Ministry! 6-8 Grade you are encouraged to explore the questions of faith they may have. Our belief for the process of Confirmation is for the youth to DISCOVER their own understanding of who God is, what Jesus did and how the Spirit is working through them still!
