Youth Ministry

The Student Ministry at Missio Dei Church serves students in 6th-12th grade. We partner with families in raising the next generation for a lifetime of knowing God, experiencing his love and following Jesus Christ in his mission.

Thursday Night Youth Group

  • We meet every Thursday during the summer from 7 – 9 p.m. at various homes of our youth ministry students.
  • We start our time with a fun game followed by a devotional lead by either an adult leader or a willing student. We then separate into two groups based on age to have a smaller group discussion.
  • We always end our time with a delicious snack!

Monthly Events

  • Once per month, we have a special event in an attempt to serve our greater community, or to reach out to our friends who are interested in learning more about our faith.
  • Past service projects have included raking leaves for our church neighbors and delivering care packages to Chicago’s homeless community.
  • Outreach events have included visiting a corn maze, white elephant gift exchange, pool party, and more!

Annual Events

  • Winter Retreat – each winter we travel up to Camp Timber-lee in Wisconsin for a fun-filled weekend, including outdoor games, fantastic speakers, and personal growth.
  • Summer Retreat / Mission Trip – TBD

If you or someone you love is a junior high or high school student, we would love to have you join us for any of our fun-filled events listed above. For more information, connect with Josh or Alexcis.
