Youth Ministry
First Lutheran Church is growing our Youth Ministry! We have Faith Formation for children grades K-5 and Confirmation for students 6-8. First Lutheran Youth (FLY) encompasses all of our K-12 students.
Faith Formation
Weekly Faith Formation classes are offered during the service for students in grades K-5. Following the Children's Message, the youth head upstairs with their teachers, where they engage in approximately thirty minutes of dedicated learning time.
As of July 2026, we are launching a new infant and toddler class, Frolic Bible. This class is designed for children birth- about 5 years old and their grown-ups. There will be a story, either from the Frolic First Bible or the corresponding story books, an activity, and music. Watch the calendar as we hammer out a routine time for this exciting new class.
Students in grades K-2 are introduced to the SPARK Story curriculum, which aligns with the Church Lectionary and includes age-appropriate activities that enhance their writing, reading, and creative skills.
Meanwhile, students in grades 3-5 participate in Godly Play lessons that encourage a deeper exploration of their faith.
Confirmation is for students in grades 6-8 that want to further their Christian faith and become confirmed members of the Lutheran Church. This class meets once a month with Pastor Rhoades. The full course takes 3 academic years to complete.
Youth Events
Each month, the youth have dedicated events planned to foster their religious growth and connection to FLC. Whether that is a bowling day or movie night, the children are encouraged to come learn, play, and assemble in fellowship with their peers.
