Junior High youth do either a “fun” or service project each month. This event is typically done with the Senior High. From our Youth Group, we decide on some "fun" events and service events for the coming months. We have served in the community at retirement homes, The Portland Rescue Mission, elderly widow's houses, and many other places that need help. Some of our "Fun" activities include bowling, ice skating, Christmas caroling, parties, and many more things to come. Come on out and see what is happening next.

Each summer our Junior High heads out for a week at camp. This week is spent at a Lutheran Camp. Kids meet new friends, grow in faith, learn new songs, and have a ton of fun.

Junior High is learning what Youth Group is all about and learning what it should look like. Come on out and help us form a place where everyone is welcome, learning, and having fun.

Our Senior High youth ministry consists of 9-12 graders.   The youth meet once a week for "Youth Group." Youth Group is a place where our youth, their friends, and anyone who walks in can be safe, comforted, and be themselves. During Youth Group, youth study the Bible, play games, share in small groups, sing songs, and have an opportunity to be leaders. We usually have a snack at this time, but that is not always a definite.

   Each season the Sr. High Youth have a retreat. During a retreat we have more focused learning, more intense games, trust building, sharing, and of course lots of fun. During the winter we always go up to Mount Hood and spend the weekend learning, worshiping, sledding, and becoming closer to one another. Then in the summer we do a week long mission trip. In the past we have been to Alaska, Mexico, Idaho, Oregon, and many other places for our week of service.

   Sr. High Youth are always willing to welcome in new people to our group. Come on out and see what we are doing.

Confirmation is a one-year, 30-session, interactive learning time to help young people confirm their baptismal grace. Partnering with parents (who are required to attend), students may enter at any time between 6th and 10th grades. The six chief parts of Luther's catechism are covered, with additional units on church history, spiritual gifts and worship.

The following Bible studies are intended for students getting ready for regular confirmation classes, which will begin in the Fall of 2008.  They are downloadable as Word documents:

The Ten Commandments
Apostles Creed
The Lord's Prayer
Baptism
Confession
