Youth Ministries
ENGAGED AND EMPOWERED THROUGH CHRIST. JOIN US!
“How do we keep the youth of our congregation engaged, educated, empowered and commmitted to living out their faith? We do it through intergenerational support, mentoring, and providing impactful options for service, participation and spiritual growth. We do it by making each one of our young people feel valued and important. We do it by creating a family for them that is grounded in Christ’s compassion and grace!” — Dori Rossmann, LCR Director of Youth Ministry
