Grow In Faith
“I can read the same Bible passage at different times in my life, but each time it speaks to me in a unique way that helps me for that specific moment.” -RELC Adult Forum attendee

Catechism and Confirmation
Using the Bible and Luther’s Small Catechism as its foundation, the Catechism program at RELC will guide students actively exploring their faith. A combined class of middle schoolers meets twice a month throughout the school year. Confirmation (for 9th graders) takes place on Reformation Sunday in October.
Youth are encouraged (and required) to take notes on sermons – here is a guide to assist worshipnotesplain
