Senior High Youth group focuses on the transition of youth from childhood to adulthood. Life throws a lot at youth. At Trinity, we provide youth with an arsenal of tools to handle it. Parents are interwoven into the program as leaders, guides, and partners. The tools come in many and varied forms:
- Discussion forums for hot topics
- Delving into the Bible to find life applications from scripture
- Fun group events that build up supportive friendships
- Service events that build a heart for giving
- Experiential multi-day events and retreats that immerse youth in activities that promote spiritual growth that youth will remember for a lifetime
Youth Easter Breakfast
The youth will be serving Easter breakfast at both campuses again this year. This breakfast is a fundraiser that enables youth to participate in retreat experiences that strongly help them grow in their daily walk with Jesus. Proceeds will benefit those who are attending our summer trip to Lutheran Valley Retreat in Colorado. Thank you for your support of our youth!

Bible Studies, Discussion Time, Engaging Activities
Youth can participate in a myriad of events each month, from Sunday morning youth Sunday School in the youth room at each campus, to Sunday evening Youth Nights at family host locations. Youth meet new friends, strengthen old friendships and have time to talk about real-life issues in a setting with appropriate adult guidance of discussion topics.
Serving Others
Serving others is one of the hallmarks of faith life at Trinity, and youth are no exception. One of the greatest joys in youth ministry is to see the smiles of satisfaction as young adult realize the joy of serving others as the love of Christ flows through them. Service activities include providing childcare for parents’ night out events, serving an Easter breakfast, and setting up garage sales among other things. A servant event trip somewhere within the United States is in the planning stages, too!
