Children and Youth Opportunities

Sunday School Classes - For birth through 12th grade. Sunday school meets at 10:00 AM every Sunday morning. Perfect attendance is rewarded monthly by a selection from the "treasure chest" of goodies located in the Sunday school office. In addition to regular Sunday school class time, each class has extracurricular activities and service projects of their choosing.

Children's Summer Program - Held in cooperation with St. John's United Methodist Church and Faith Lutheran Church, the summer program is for children in 3rd-5th grade. Field trips, service projects, crafts and Bible story lessons are all part of this summer-long program.

Vacation Bible School - VBS is for all ages and meets in the evenings beginning with supper for one week in the summer. Activities include arts and crafts, Bible lessons, music, community service projects and much more! An extra treat is when the children present their special music on the last night of VBS.

Cub Scouts and Girl Scouts - LUMC sponsors Club Scout Pack 29 (from Tigers to Webelos) and they meet the 2nd and 4th Monday nights, 7-8:00 PM. LUMC also sponsors Brownies, who meet on Wednesdays at 5:45 PM, and Junior Girl Scouts, who meet on Fridays from 4:00 to 6:00 PM. All regular meetings are held at the church.

Children Youth Groups:
