Children/Youth

Faith formation with children and youth grows out of our Baptismal Covenant.  If we want our young people to have faith in Jesus our first commitment is to deepen the faith of their parents, grandparents and caring adults—primary influencers of the faith. 

The content of our faith matters.  What is the faith you hope to share?  The events and stories offered on this page represent the whole community coming together on behalf of our young people growing out of our faith in Jesus Christ.  Please join us!

 

Human Dignity Retreat

Confirmation students (parents are welcome too) are invited to a synod-wide gathering to discuss topics many parents are uncomfortable talking about with their kids. Through Parent Discussion Guides provided prior to the event, this meaningful retreat will partner with parents in addressing the issues associated with their youth’s coming of age. Teens are hungry for honest answers to difficult questions, and parents need support from the church in order to protect and equip their kids in a difficult world.
