Emmanuel has a strong and dedicated Youth Ministry Team that is working hard to provide a quality program of activities for our young people in the 6th through 12th grades. Right now this program is under construction so that we will be better able to meet the hopes and expectations of this group and their parents.

The Youth Ministry Team has planned a series of Conversations this fall with our youths and their parents (in separate groups of course) during which specific issues will be addressed as to their hopes and expectations for this program. All those in grades 6 through 12, and their parents, will be invited to take part in one of these discussions. Once these conversations have been held, the data will be evaluated and the Youth Ministry Team will begin its work.

A "Reveal Event" will be scheduled for December during which all those involved can hear results of the earlier sessions and learn of the initial plans that are in place for the winter.

We hope that through the Conversations we will hear from everyone, and that this will lead to kicking off a program that will draw all our teens and their parents into active participation.

You are strongly encouraged to join us in this important project.
