MINISTRY FOR YOUTH
Sunne
Lutheran Youth includes those youth
grade 7-12. This group meets
periodically for potlucks, breakfasts,
activities, conversation, faith journeys
and a major summer activity.
At Sunne Lutheran we value the
opportunity to learn more about God and
to grow in our faith. We offer a
variety of educational
experiences. All ministry at Sunne
is
guided by three themes:
-
God
welcomes us into God's family at our
baptism. God reaches out to us and
claims us as God's child. Our
whole life is our response to God's
action in our baptism.
-
God
keeps our relationship fresh through
Holy Communion. In Holy Communion,
we receive the physical forgiveness and
acceptance that we need to live out our
faith.
Sunday School: 9:30 a.m. Sunday
Classes are offered for children ages 3 (if accompanied by a parent)
or age 4 through sixth grade.
Classes are held Sunday mornings during the school year. Because we
value our worship, personalized hymnals are given to third grade
students in the fall of their third grade year. Since we treasure
the word of God, Beginners Bibles are given to first grade students
in the spring of their first grade year and personalized Bibles are
given to fifth grade students in the fall of their fifth grade year.
Confirmation:
A program of learning about and growing in our faith. Confirmation
is a 2 1/4 year program. Classes are taught from grades 7-9.
Small group activities, work projects, and a summer trip are also part of this program. Confirmation Sunday (9th grade) is
usually the last Sunday in October.
First Communion:
The age of First Communion is determined by the
parents in conjunction with the pastor. First Communion is
offered to any age level and is usually completed by the time a
person is in third grade. First Communion class is offered
every fall.
