Formation

A Christ centered, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and social justice focused youth ministry collective.. We cultivate space for our students to form lifelong friendships as they have fun through games and retreats. We encourage them to ask the tough questions that may not always have answers and could lead to more questions. Our students serve in the community. Coming to the table to share in food and community is a priority. Our adult leaders are called to love and mentor our students and to grow in their own faith. Simply put, youth group is a formative experience for our students and leaders.
