Youth Ministry

At Good Shepherd Lutheran, our purpose is to nurture a vibrant faith in the lives of young people by creating a welcoming community where students can grow in their relationship with God. We strive to empower youth to discover their unique gifts, foster authentic connections, and engage in service, all rooted in the teachings of Jesus Christ. Through worship, fellowship, and outreach, we aim to equip the next generation to live out their faith boldly and purposefully in their everyday lives.

YOUTH BIBLE STUDY & CONFIRMATION

Junior and Senior High youth are invited to join us Sunday morning at 9:30 AM for a Youth Bible Study in The Trench or for Confirmation in Room 11. Confirmation is a 2 year class designed to prepare junior high students for the opportunity to affirm their baptism. Students not involved with confirmation are invited to join the Youth Bible Study which currently is focused on a journey through the Old Testament.

The first Sunday of the month is Worship Service Sunday and all students are encouraged to attend the worship service in the sanctuary. Confirmation and Youth Bible Study do not meet on the first Sunday to allow for time in the worship service for our youth.

WEEKLY YOUTH GROUP

Every Wednesday night the Junior and Senior High youth of Good Shepherd and their friends are invited to join us for COMMUNITY Youth Group. Students gather in The Trench (located downstairs) for an evening of small group Bible study, games, worship and some great fellowship. Various service projects and offsite events are scheduled throughout the year. For more information contact the church office.
