CONFIRMATION CAMP &
SERVANT LEADERSHIP ACADEMY
We had an awesome few days of camp in 2023! Our young people got to know Jesus and each other better as they took part in morning and evening lessons. Also tons of fun water games and other activities like canoeing, ropes courses and archery.
To kick things off, we hosted a Confirmation Family BBQ on Sunday at Shepherd, followed by visits to two different day camps. Students and adult leaders traveled to daycamp via bus each day and were joined by Peder Eide for worship! We closed things out by worshipping with Peder at Shepherd before enjoying an ice cream social.
Thanks to all that made this an awesome experience!
CONFIRMATION CELEBRATION
Our 8th grade students will celebrate with their family and friends at a special service in May of 2024.
