Information about the group

We have a joint youth group with Bethany Lutheran Church. Youth group is for kids in 6th - 12th grades. We rotate meeting between the two churches having a light meal followed by a video and discussion. Our activities include mission projects such as Toys for Tots, World Visions 30 Hour Famine, and serving a meal to a homeless shelter. We also do fun things like roller-skating and a progressive dinner.



Past Events and Activities

The youth group held their kickoff at Dennis & Patty Colburn’s farm on Sept 13th. Twenty two youth participated in various Farm Fear Factor games such as “cow liver relay” and “cow chip hurling”. The evening ended with a wiener roast and fellowship time. We also welcomed the new associate pastor from the Edward’s River Ministry, Chris Heller to our group. Chris, being a farm boy himself, participated in the cow chip hurling contest. Thanks to Dennis and Patty for hosting this event and also for planning the games! They were gross but loads of fun! Thanks also to those who supported this event through financial donations—they were used to purchase the food for the wiener roast.

The youth met twice in October. On Oct. 4th they met for a video and discussion. Thank you to Chris Youngren for providing our meal. A work day was held on Oct. 18th and the youth raked leaves at a couple homes.
