Senior High School A.M.P. Grade 9-12

Description of AMP (Adolescent Ministry Program)

AMP is the name of the Sr. High Youth Ministry at Peace Lutheran Church. Our purpose and goal is to support and equip youth grades 9-12 to live in Christ in all areas of life.

Sunday Mornings

We bring youth together on Sunday mornings for Bible study & to build relationships so they can connect & reaffirm what they believe as they live their daily life.

Wednesday Evenings

We offer a safe place for youth to gather & grow as believers in Christ on Wednesday evenings. Students will experience the importance of staying close to God, deal with situations in their daily life, determine what is needed for spiritual survival, discover the importance of support and accountability & examine their commitment to God.

National Youth Gathering

Every 3 years the LCMS offers a National Youth Gathering. The next gathering will take place in July 2013 in San Antonio, TX. 30,000 youth & adults will gather to worship, grow & serve their Lord & Savior. Peace is looking forward to attending the gathering. We have a 1:5 adult to youth ratio. We want our youth to make the commitment to this gathering early so the youth can get the most out of this life-changing experience. Look for more information as we get closer to registration.

Lock-ins/Retreats

Throughout the year, many opportunities will be offered for youth to gather & get away from the stresses of life through retreats & lock-ins in order to help them reaffirm what God has done for them.

Stewardship

We want to give our youth a better understanding of stewardship by helping them to use their gifts of time, treasures & talents to serve our Lord & Savior. We will be offering opportunities for the congregation to help this ministry grow through various fundraising & service activities.

Service Opportunities

Because Christ first loved us, we want to serve others. Throughout the year, the youth will be asked to help with various service projects based on need. These can include projects locally & throughout the United States & beyond.

Worship Opportunities

We want to offer opportunities for our youth to get involved in our worship services & apply the message into their daily spiritual life.

Thursday Lunch

Throughout the school year, local churches (HEY Ministries) provides free lunches to the senior high youth at Shalom Baptist Church. Peace Lutheran will be responsible for serving 4 times during the year. We are in need of volunteers to help set-up, serve & clean-up. This is a great way to see the needs of our youth through a meal.
