Living in God's Amazing Grace
We Grow in our Faith
As God's people, we seek to learn more by reading the Bible, discussing with each other, and praying together.
0 - 3 year olds
We LOVE having children in worship!
And we know it can sometimes be a challenge!
We have crayons, clipboards, activity sheets available as you enter the sanctuary.
​
Our Joyful Noise worship is engaging for all ages! We have songs with movement, a
Bible reading & message specifically for our youngest members. And ALL are invited to participate in worship through offering & communion.
​
Our nursery is now open during Joyful Noise worship with attendants!

6th-9th Grade
Confirmation
At Amazing Grace​ we practice a 2 year Confirmation program during 7th & 8th grade years and the Affirmation of Baptism (Confirmation serving) in the fall of a young person's 9th grade year.
​
During these 2 years of Confirmation we focus our teaching on asking a lot of questions!
We balance times of youth in small groups & family meetings.
We play outside of class time with fellowship meet ups.
We meet other Confirmation youth in the ELCA area churches for retreats and service projects.
And we remember we each are a Child of God, learning alongside each other.

Adult Education
Each week the topics stand alone.
AND they build on each other to provide a well-rounded overview of such a wide topic with a lot of resources!
We hope you'll join!
