ELCA Youth Gathering 2027
Interested in attending the ELCA Youth Gathering in Minneapolis next summer? Join MC Saundra on Sunday, October 18 at 11:00 AM in her office for an informational meeting. We’ll talk about the current trip itinerary, changes to the Gathering’s structure, estimated costs, and fall fundraising options. This will be the last informational meeting before registration in November! Youth can still be added after the initial November registration deadline, but additional costs will apply.

MS & HS Faith Explorers
On Sunday mornings when there is no Faith and Fellowship, join MC Saundra and our adult volunteers in the youth room after worship for snacks, conversation, and discussion about the week’s lesson. Then stick around for some friendly competition with Mario Kart, foosball, Throw Throw Burritos, and more! This time is not required for confirmation—just come and join us on the weeks you’re able! We’d love to see you there!

Progressive Suppers
Progressive suppers are back! On December 6, we’ll gather at Zion at 4:45 PM for a prayer and to load up the church van to head to our first host. After appetizers and dinner at two different locations, we’ll return to Zion for dessert and fellowship together. Suppers are open to middle and high school youth—bring a friend! The remaining progressive supper date for the fall will be Sunday, December 6.

Drive Up Donuts
Drive Up Donuts is back! On the last Friday of the month, donuts and a devotion will be available for pickup at Zion. Simply enter the south parking lot, drive up to the table, and a helper will hand you donuts and a devotion that you can enjoy on your way to school or work. The next Drive Up Donuts event will be held on Friday, October 30 from 7:30-8:00 AM.

Service Opportunity
There will be a service opportunity for middle and high school youth on Sunday, November 22 following Advent decorating and the soup and pie lunch. We will gather together to serve others in our community. Mark the date on your calendar and plan to help us give back!
