The goal of this group is to bring teens together for fellowship and fun while focusing on Christ in a welcoming, Christ-centered environment.
We meet every Sunday morning for Bible study and organize larger events quarterly. We also have a calendar of events planned throughout the year.
The group is open to all teens! You do not have to be WELS to join—everyone is welcome. Joining the group is free, but for certain special events, we may ask for a small fee to help cover costs.
