Youth Goals

The Youth of the church are people whose faith needs to be nurtured and developed. They are also people who offer a different way of understanding our faith. The congregation should develop ways to both teach and nurture our youth and develop ways for our youth to teach and inspire adults with their joy and enthusiasm.

 

  1. Create opportunities for mutual ministries (i.e. ways in which youth can express their faith and enthusiasm to the rest of the congregation as well as ways youth themselves can be enriched)

  2. Improve communication to the congregation concerning all the things the youth in fact do

  3. Follow-up on synod and national church youth events so that the congregation can benefit from the youth experience at these events

  4. Focus on Middle School youth  focusing on finding a way to coordinate more fellowship activities by seeking out a volunteer to organize them

  5. Continue work with confirmation and high school youth and coordinate Confirmation Class activities with social events to maintain group cohesion

  6. Address the creation of a paid Youth Worker position
