Youth Ministry
Milestone Ministry
Walking with parents every step of their Baptismal journey,
Milestone Ministry empowers families to Keep the Promise and
Pass on the Faith. Milestone Ministry provides special workshops
and celebrations to guide families through their child's faith
life each and every year. Some milestones include: 1st Baptism
Birthday, Sunday School entrance, 3rd Grade Bibles, 1st
Communion, and Confirmation. Other milestones tie our faith walk
with our everyday life including first prayers, Blessing of
Backpacks and Graduation.

Mommy & Me
This special ministry connects moms and little ones with
other Christian moms and little ones. Through snacks, play,
sharing, devotions, songs and special events each is blessed and
empowered to be their best. Mommy & Me is a special place to
belong during the early
years of your child's life. And the Christian friendships you
make will last a lifetime!

Carpenter Kids
Christian friendships are so important in a child's life. Fun
is important too!
Carpenter Kids ties these two together in purely fun
activities for 3rd, 4th and 5th graders.
Monthly activities include skating, Non-Birthday Parties,
Waldvogel's Fall Fair and the favorite Sleep Overnight at
Church. Each event is packed with fun opportunities to get to
know other kids. And they all include a God moment to remind us
why we gather and whose we are.
Carpenter Kids is a great ministry for 3rd - 5th graders and
their families!

Day Camp
When school is out church is on!
And Day Camp is the perfect "ON" for community and church
kids alike. What better place to hang and learn about God in a
camp-style setting while your parent's are at work! Day camp
runs 9am-3pm all week and even offers a early Breakfast Club for
kids whose parents need to get to work. All week is packed with
great games, crafts, outing, songs, Bible stories and time with
college-age counselors who really love kids and God. Day camp is
the perfect summer pick-me-up for kids 1st through 6th grade.

M & M
Middle & Mighty is our ministry of fun, fellowship times for
middle school students (6th - 8th grade) only. Meeting almost
every month, M&M events include a Box Overnight sleepover, snow
tubing, laser tag, scavenger hunts,
Noah's Ark trip and some
crazy onsite events like "June Bug Night." M&M is full of crazy
fun times specially designed for middle school minds. It's a
great place to invite your friends and show them just how much
fun church stuff can be!

Confirmation
Our new curriculum and long-beloved format is a perfect match
for the high energy of middle school students. We mix up a night
of learning and spiritual growth through providing a format that
includes interactive learning times, great personal faith talk
sharing, games that tie to the theme, teaching by the pastors,
small group sharing, worship, snacks, drama, video, music and
art. Then we add in caring adults as guides for a deeply
enriching time of spiritual journey. Wow! That's new and
improved Confirmation!

TOV Senior High
Claiming your faith means owning your ministry at 1st
Lutheran. So our senior high youth plan out their own ministry

outcome is ever changing and always relevant.
