Youth Ministry is transitioning to meeting online with students. We are doing this primarily in Zoom meetings. We are working very hard on these gatherings to make them interactive, fun and engaging to keep them growing as a disciple during this time being locked-in. We want all of our students Middle and High School to log-in and join us. Please encourage your child to join us online and hopefully make it a priority for them to continue to grow in their faith.
How To Set Up Zoom Meetings:
This is where we will meet daily with students. As the host, Justin Lantz will have full access to mute students’ video or audio, allow students to join the group, and the group will end when I exit the meeting. Each Zoom has at least two safe environment trained adults. It is a safe way for our group to meet and allows us to continue to build our community during this time.
