Elevate Student Ministry

Elevate Student Ministry, is a group of 7th through 12th grade students who love God and each other.  We gather during the week for Wednesday night worship, games and small groups, and Sunday morning small group, to grow together in our relationship with Christ.  Our desire is to challenge, support, pray with, and encourage each other as we seek to follow God in our lives.  We invite you to begin or continue your spiritual journey with us as St. John's.

Confirmation 2019

Confirmation is a milestone of faith for our students in grades 7th and up. Students spend several weeks exploring topics of faith, reading and studying their bibles, learning about Christ and his plan for their futures as well as discovering the history and uniqueness of the United Methodist Church. The process includes a retreat, a service day, several gatherings for discussion and learning, as well as opportunities to lead, grow, and share their faith. Parent participation is also required during the class. The cost is $100, but scholarships are available by emailing Krista. Registration is due by 2/24.
