The mission of our youth ministry is to capture and cultivate the hearts of Middle School and High School students for Christ’s sake.  We are convinced that youth ministry at DCLC is uniquely equipped for ministry to youth and their families.  Within the context of caring relationships, we can provide students with: relevant encounters with God who loves them dearly, caring connections with peers and adults, and opportunities to practice service to others.

It is our goal to be a chief outpost for the Gospel of Christ among youth and their families.  We have created an environment in which: students feel safe, the individual student and their relationships experience the restorative work of the Gospel, students can reach out to friends and family members with the love and grace they have received from Christ, and students are equipped to live faithfully in the Body of Christ, their family and their community.

MIDDLE SCHOOL NIGHT (6TH-8TH GRADE)
Sunday nights from 5:00-6:30pm at Tempe Youth Room

Middle School Night is a time to gather, discuss meaningful topics, get to know each other, play games, and laugh!  All 6th-8th grade students are welcome to join us, and friends are always welcome!

CONFIRMATION (6TH-9TH GRADE)

Students will gather Sundays during Faithformation Education as we dive into our faith, doubts, questions, and our Bibles.  We will cover topics from Luther's Small Catechism, New Testament, Old Testament, and share our own stories of our faith lives.  Desert Cross also incorporates service to others as a part of our Confirmation program.   

Classes begin in September 2023 and will wrap up in May 2024 for the summer.
