Children and youth are both the present and the future of the church and the world. We, as a church, nourish the faith of these young people as they grow in their relationship and knowledge about God, build relationships with others, and serve those in need. Just as Jesus invited the children to come to him, we too invite and welcome all children and youth to St. Philip Lutheran Church.
Confirmation
Confirmation is open to all students in 7th & 8th grades (high school students who have not been confirmed are welcome as well). Classes are held each Wednesday from 6-8pm with dinner provided. Confirmation is a time for these youth to connect with one another, learn about God and learn about the Bible. This is done through stories, conversations, arts and crafts, and more. We have tried to make confirmation fun for the youth as they learn about God, the Bible and get to know each other. We use a curriculum called Echo the Story to teach the Bible and the whole story to the youth.
Contact Melinda Svenkerud for more information.
Sr. High Youth Group
Sr. High Youth Group is open to all students in 9-12th grade. Youth group is on Wednesday evenings from 6-8pm. We begin with a meal with the confirmation students at 6:00pm and then move to the youth room where we have a devotion, a time to connect by sharing highs and lows and play fun games.
