YOUTH MINISTRY
Confirmation
Confirmation begins Sept. 19th and is for grades 7th and 8th. The students will be combined into one class this year, and will meet from 3:15-4:00pm. We will have snacks as soon as the kids arrive from school.
We will have a meeting for parents on Sept 9th at 6:30 pm. We will organize our parent helper list and go over materials for our 7th and 8th grade Sunday school class on sexuality and dating.
Parent helpers for each Wednesday evening serve snacks and help manage the kids. Our church constitution requires at least two adults to oversee all youth events at the church.
Our Sunday school class on sexuality and dating is mostly about dating and making good choices, but also deals with topics such as date rape, and sexually transmitted diseases. Pastor Gary and Hannah Seeger will be teaching this class but could use at least one more adult for times when Hannah or pastor are unavailable to teach.

“makes all things new” (Rev. 21:5).
