MINISTRIES & ACTIVITIES FOR YOUTH

We welcome all youth from 7th grade to 12th grade to join us in pursuing how God is living within us, guiding us, and gracing us with God's *outrageous love.* Throughout each year, we take part in a variety of activities, organized around fun, Word, and service:

FUN: Join us in monthly fun activities that build connections with our peers from all parts of the Salt Lake Valley. 

WORD: Join us during the school year on Sundays at 9:15am during Education Hour as we dive deeper into the Word. During this time, Faith Formation Disciples (7th-9th graders) meet to explore the Old Testament, New Testament, and Luther 101 before they make the Affirmation of Baptism (Confirmation). Also during this time, Senior High Disciples meet in the Youth Room to engage in what it means to be a Christian in today's world.

SERVICE: Join us as we walk alongside those in our community that may need a little extra help. Throughout the year, we participate in various activities and service projects. Our youth also serve in worship by acolyting or reading at least 6 times a year.

For more information about any youth activities, contact Lisa Mensinger, our Director of Youth Ministry.

Faith Formation

Faith Formation Disciples (7th-9th graders): This group meets weekly during the Sunday education hour to explore the Old Testament, New Testament, and Luther 101 before making their Affirmation of Baptism (Confirmation).

Utah Youth Gathering - 2019

​Each year, youth from Zion and other community churches participate in an annual Youth Gathering. This past year the weekend retreat included a service project and finding ways to spread Love in the community. 

In 2019, WHO ME?  was the theme of living into our vocation. The youth of Zion and other Lutheran churches served the community over the weekend, and shared their experiences in worship on Sunday.
