Who is our Youth Group is and what are they doing?
Our Youth Group are Teenagers, Grade 8 to 12, who meet every second Friday from September through June, 7:00–8:30 p.m.
They play games outdoors or in the gym, study the Bible, participate in a W.A.G. (What About God?) Box, and generally enjoy fellowship with each other.
Youth anonymously submit questions about God, the Church, the Bible, and other topics into the W.A.G. box, which Pastor Kyle answers at the following meetings.
Special events can include bowling, hiking, baking Christmas cookies for homebound members of our Church, and an end-of-season party.
Because dates, times, and locations can change on short notice, please check the Upcoming Events page for the latest information!

2026 – Impact Youth Gathering in Grand Forks, BC; Theme: John 15:5
“I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.”
Four of our youth and Pastor Kyle attended the IMPACT Youth Gathering at Pines Bible Camp in Grand Forks, BC. There, they explored what it means to be branches in the Vine (John 15:5), worshipped with other Lutheran youth, made new friends, and enjoyed a variety of camp activities.
Our group tried archery, tackled a high ropes course, raced down a slip-and-slide, swam, played wide games and board games, created arts and crafts, sang around campfires, and served by clearing rocks from the river swimming area.
Pastor Kyle led daily Bible studies for a small group and also learned more about building and nurturing a strong youth group community and culture.
The youth are deeply grateful to everyone who prayed for them, supported their fundraisers, and gave generously to make this trip possible.
As we look forward to future activities and gatherings, we invite our congregation to continue supporting our youth ministry through prayer, participation, and giving.
Your ongoing encouragement makes a real difference! Please remember: Our youth are not just the future—they are part of Christ’s body today!
