Growing in Faith. Building Community. Church Together.

Youth and young adults are not just the future of the church—they are an important part of the church today.

Youth & Family Ministry in the Northwestern Minnesota Synod creates opportunities for young people and the adults who accompany them to gather, grow in faith, build relationships, and experience what it means to be part of the wider church.

Through retreats, gatherings, leadership opportunities, and connections across congregations, we hope to support congregations as they walk alongside young people and families in faith.
