High School Ministry

High School Events
We have several opportunities for high school students to gather in community during the school year:
  • Wednesday nights from 7:00 to 8:30 we are at the lighthouse (just south of the church). Wednesdays are a time for us to gather together for group discussions and growing in faith through God's Word.  
  • Sundays: We try to gather on Sunday at least once a month for a fun activity or service project around the Des Moines area.
You are invited to join us for any of these nights; there is no need to register. You are welcome anytime.  Friends are always welcome!
Mission Trip Milwaukee
When: July 28 to August 2, 2019
Where: Milwaukee, Wisconsin
Who: anyone who has completed 6th grade through 12th grade (and not going to Puerto Rico)
What: we’re going to serve Monday through Thursday! (we’ll travel on Sunday and Friday)
Mission Trip Puerto Rico
It’s not just for high school students anymore! This summer all students 14 and over are welcome to join us in Puerto Rico. Adults are welcome too. In fact, we’re hoping whole families will take the opportunity to serve together.
ELCA Colleges & Universities
ELCA colleges and universities have a helpful website – whygolutheran.org – for students and parents as they embark on the college search process. On the site families can:
• Learn more about the value of the Lutheran college experience.
• Read about the distinctive features of a Lutheran liberal arts education.
• Complete one simple form to request college information from individual institutions.
