Youth of Color Event
The Youth Ministries of the SEPA Synod continues to promote spiritual and
energizing events, activities and worship experiences among our
youth across our five county region. It is a ministry that is inclusive of
the brainstorming ideas that are birthed from the youth who reside within
your congregations. One of these recent ideas is to host a Youth of Color
event which
will happen this spring, as a lock-in April 30th – May 1st.
The event will focus on the idea of “Connections”. How are we connected to
God, our communities, our church and each other?
Youth who are in grades 6th – 12th and identify themselves as a Youth of
Color are invited to attend. The registration fee is $25 per person and
scholarships are available.

Wonderfully Made Camp
There is an exciting upcoming opportunity for LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual,
transgender or questioning) teens and allies to attend a Lutheran camp in
the area.
The camp is being sponsored by the SEPA Synod Lutheran Bryson/Gay & Lesbian
Task Force and is an opportunity for young people who identify as LGBTQ to
come together and safely share worship, examine their faith and enjoy
fellowship.
Camp dates are April 16-18 starting Friday night and finishing Sunday
afternoon at Bear Creek Camp. Youth in grades 9-12 are invited to register.
Registration is limited to the first 24 applicants.
The name of the camp, “Wonderfully Made” is taken from Psalm 139. Cost for
the camp is $60 before March 30th and $75 after that date. Scholarship
assistance is available before March 30th.
If you have a young person that might be interested in this camp, please
share this opportunity with them. A brochure with more information and a
testimony from last year’s camp is available below.

Connecting Through
Confirmation
Confirmation, the time when a young person affirms his or her faith, cannot
only happen in a classroom in your congregation. In order to fully
understand their calling
as Christians, confirmands must get out into this world to be the hands,
feet, ears and hearts of Christ to others. Our synod’s youth ministry and
Liberty Lutheran Services, an umbrella Social Ministry Organization in our
territory, believe this so strongly that we have partnered to create hands
on learning opportunities for confirmation classes to engage in social
ministry.
Download the
information brochure for more details and contact Molly at
mbeck@sepa.org
for opportunities still available for the spring of 2010!
