Youth Ministries
Kids Talk:
Kids talks are given about once each month during worship - a message tailored for the kids as they gather at the front of the sanctuary and shared with the whole congregation.
Kids Church:
During the sermon at each week's worship service, kids are given their own time to learn about God and Christ in our lives.
Kids of His Light:
Kids from 4 years old to the 4th grade are invited to join us for fun-filled evenings of games and activities aimed at highlighting Christ's presence in our lives.
First Communion:
We will be starting another class soon for those who are ready to take First Communion (children in 2nd grade and older, with parental involvement).
Confirmation:
To prepare youth to take the next steps in their faith journeys, confirm and declare their Christian faith, and accept their commissioning to faithful church membership, we are pleased to begin Confirmation education for 6th to 8th grade students.
Middle School Youth Group:
Students from 5th to 8th are invited to join together on the last Sunday of each month - September through May - for a time of fellowship and activities, food and devotion. Activities will vary by month, so come willing and ready to have a great time!
Other programs in various stages of planning include a Children's Christmas Program, a co-ed Youth Soccer Night, a Toddlers Group, Middle School and High School Youth Groups, and a Youth Music Program.
Adult Ministries
Adult Bible Study - Read, study, interpret, and apply: these are ultimately the goals within each facet of our spiritual journey. Come share in this invigorating time! Multiple groups meet throughout the year.
Music Ministries
Our Praise Band is always looking for additional talent - please contact the church office if you're interested in sharing your musical gifts for Christ's glory!
Outreach
Currently, we are blessed to already have our Light the Way Preschool and ACE programs to share the Word of God with families in the community. We are active supporters of the Marana Food Bank, and are expectantly looking to expand our efforts into several new areas.
We are also excited at the prospects for our evolving and expanding Outreach efforts as we develop new mission partnerships, creating additional opportunities for program development and support. Our affiliation with the Lutheran Congregations in Mission for Christ (LCMC) is yet another avenue allowing us to pursue new Outreach opportunities, as well.
Support for God's work everywhere through our prayers for our community and the world will be an ongoing mission and, continually, we are thankful to be "claimed by the Light of Christ forever, as we are called, gathered, and sent to tell of God's love and to serve all of God's people!"
Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
