Youth & Children's Ministry


Jesus cares for children just as much as adults. That’s why parents are called to bring their children up, “…in the training and instruction of the Lord.” (Ephesians 6:4)
Holy Emmanuel is committed to helping parents in that all important task, and provides spiritual growth opportunities and fun events for children from pre-school to high-school age.

Adult Bible Study
Sundays @ 8:30 & 10:45 am. Tuesdays 11 am.
Led by Pastor Paul Krentz
At Holy Emmanuel, we seek to foster meaningful Christian spiritual growth for all adults. By diving deep into the Scriptures and discussing its practical application for our life, we grow in our knowledge and understanding of God's saving grace, and are drawn by the Spirit ever closer to our Savior Jesus.
Faith Family Fellowship
Sundays @ 10:45 am, September - May
Led by Pastor Paul Krentz
On Sunday mornings (September-May), families are invited to join us after Worship for Faith Family Fellowship. This is a topical study where participants are invited to choose whatever topics, issues, or passages in the Bible they would like to discuss.
Little Blessings Sunday School
Led by Christina Krentz
Sundays @ 10:45 am, September - May
Children in 1st through 6th grade gather together to learn God's word, then talk about their faith in Jesus and discuss their Christian life in ways that are meaningful for children.
Youth Ministry
Led jointly by Christina Krentz and other volunteer members of the congregation.
Our Youth Ministry welcomes all junior and senior high youth. The focus is on helping young adults remain solid in their faith in Jesus and providing opportunities for youth to put their faith into action through various fellowship and service events.
Confirmation Classes
During the school year (September-May) we offer Confirmation classes for 6th-8th Grade students. These classes are taught by Pastor Paul Krentz and are meant to help young teens get the "big picture" of God's saving plan revealed in His Word. If you are interested in getting involved with Confirmation, please connect with him at pastork@holyemmanuel.org.
