“Your word is a lamp to my feet, a light to my path.”
Our youth program at St. Laurence is one of the key pieces of our ministry together. Through teaching, service, and intentional time together, we hope to provide a solid foundation for our young people as they begin to understand life and spirituality.
Sr. High Youth Group
The Sr. High Youth Group is a vibrant, active part of our Parish life. They have weekly meetings where they play games, pray, go out to lunch together, have spiritual discussions and just hang out together. During Sunday School this year, the Sr. High is tackling devotional topics that challenge them to know their faith, defend their faith, and extend a hand to others.
In addition, they feed lunch to the homeless at Union Gospel Mission every month and there are frequent fellowship lunches, whirly ball, laser tag, service activities and much more. All of this helps them build a community of Christian friends who can see them through the challenges of their teen years.
Perhaps most importantly, they go on mission every summer, stepping outside their comfort zones to minister to the homeless and those most in need. This summer, they are flying to Ft. Myers, FL to help with the relief efforts from the devastation caused by Hurricane Ian.
BOY SCOUT TROOP 168
St. Laurence Church sponsors Troop 168, an active, outdoor, boy-led troop. Their focus is on fun and adventure with every activity while incorporating teamwork and community service. For boys age 11 or 5th-12th grades. They meet every Sunday from 3:30-5:00pm and have campouts once a month.
