Youth groups serve to foster friendships, to discover faith, and to make fun and lasting memories. At WLLC we strive to support our youth as they learn more about their faith. The goal of our youth programs is to provide a safe, welcoming, supportive, and engaging environment where youth can explore various faith-based topics among their peers.
Youth Program updates
Confirmation will begin again on January 9th see below for dates and times. We will also be resuming our youth group with Prince of life Lutheran’s youth group. Dates and times are TBD.

Wllc COnfirmation
Confirmation is a man-made practice or “rite” in which a person publicly admits (or “professes”) his/her faith in Jesus as Lord and Savior.
The Lutheran Church believes, teaches, and practices Infant Baptism because we believe that God’s Holy Spirit can and does give faith, even to infants. Confirmation is an opportunity to give the person who may have been baptized as a baby (and thus, had no say in the process!) to finally stand up on their own and personally connect to that faith. They are “confirming” the faith that they receive in Baptism.
The Sunday Confirmation Group is at the heart of our youth ministry program. This is where their journey as a part of the WLLC Youth starts. All youth in grades 6th through 8th are eligible to attend. Classes start in September go into May from 10:30am to 11:30am and are taught by Carole White. Time is spent together with games or activities and a confirmation lesson or presentation. Through-out the year we participate in larger all church family activities on Sunday, as well as service projects with the high school youth.
While confirmation is not required in the Bible, it is an important part of our heritage as Lutherans. Confirmation is a personal and voluntary act that connects people to congregational membership. By being confirmed, a person is publicly proclaiming that they have studied the Bible and the doctrine of the Lutheran church and that they believe in it and trust in Jesus. If you would like for your student to attend confirmation please click the link below to register them. You can also view and save a copy of the appropriate Confirmation Guide as well. As always you can contact our our Youth Director Jonathan Francis with questions or for more information.
