Youth Group
Children of all ages are an important part of our church family. We encourage youth in grades 6 – 12 to be active members of our youth group. This gives us all a chance to grow in our faith, have fun and fellowship doing meaningful work, and develop life-long friendships.
​​Please check out our calendar under “Events” for more information on youth nights and other scheduled events. You can also contact the Youth Director at youth@hclutheranchurch.org for more information.
Youth Nights
All youth members and their friends are invited to join us for our weekly Wednesday night activities. We meet from 5:30 – 7:45 PM each Wednesday throughout the school year.
​
We eat a meal together at 5:30, followed by small group time, then education for confirmation students and high school students. Next, we all get back together for a large group activity which could be a competitive game between the small groups, a group servant event, playing gaga ball and other games, or listening to a speaker. We then invite all parents to join us in church at 7:40 to close the evening with a short summary and prayer.
We also have a variety of larger group activities either on-site or off-site. Some of those include playing laser tag, snow-tubing at Powder Ridge, jumping at a trampoline park, or fun games that include everyone, etc.
Other Activities
Some other events the group does may include Confirmation retreats, senior high lock-ins, Valleyfair, and getting together at fellow youth members' homes throughout the summer. We always have a great time when we are together and cherish our time to grow in our faith and develop friendships through Christian fellowship.
We love to serve within the church and conduct a number of fundraisers throughout the year. We also work together with other groups in our church family to help ensure events run smoothly and grow together as a family of God in Christ.
