Community Service is one of ways we speak out loud our faith and compassion of Jesus Christ in our community. We volunteer at various places for various groups such as food bank, homeless shelter, nursing homes, and Kloz4kids, etc. We participate in local, regional, and global cause by fundraising, writing letters, and fasting. We also put together our own community service projects such as Hallelujah Night on Halloween day, Parents’ Night Out on V-Day, and Luau for Eagle Wings Ministries, etc. Check out our calendar for updates!
Confirmation Class is a discipleship training course for those who want to take step forward into maturing relationship with Jesus Christ and commitment to become His disciple to transform the world by walking in faith and sharing the gospel. This 5 months long journey with great mentors from our own congregation will help our youth explore their identity in Christ and draw them closer to Christ more than ever. This year we start our confirmation class in January 2010 and end it with Confirmation Sunday in May 2010. There will be a Confirmation Retreat at Lazy F Camp in March 13-15,2010. Please sign up with Hanna, our youth pastor, by December 12, 2009.
Summer Mission Trips are organized every summer for youth to be the hands and feet of Jesus Christ to go out of our comfortzone and serve those who are in need. Jr. high/middle school group often joins our PNW conference camps to go serve with other youth group in our conference. Sr. high group plans trips out of state or out of country to go serve the needs and share the gospel.
