Room 104 • August-May
Spring 2023 we hosted Alpha YTH. Alpha helps create a space for honest conversation around some of life’s biggest questions. It is designed to provide guests an opportunity to connect with one another while providing the opportunity to share thoughts, ideas, and opinions in a safe and caring environment.
Alpha helps bring people together
while providing the chance
to encounter Jesus.

Class
Confirmation class meets on Sunday mornings, September – May, from 9:45-10:45am. In these groups, we engage in large-group and small-group conversations about the topic of the day. We learn from Scripture, the Catechism, and one another. Contact Pastor Zac for questions.
Retreats
October, January, March
We have a fall retreat in October, winter retreat in January, and Tomah Shinga Camp has a middle school retreat in March. These 3 day/2 night retreats give our students time to connect with each other, God, and the community.
Camp
June 18-23
Every summer, our Confirmation students spend a week together at Tomah Shinga Camp. We spend the week doing special confirmation lessons in the mornings, and regular camp activities the rest of the day. Our youth enjoy being together in the outdoors, and always have a blast at camp swimming, hiking, boating, crafting, and so much more. Register here!
