First Holy Communion

CONFIRMATION 
PROGRAM
Each year we offer a Saturday morning class to prepare children and youth to receive Holy Communion. This usually happens during Lent and includes children around the age of first grade, along with their parents. Please contact Pastor Aaron Couch to learn more or join in.
Y2B ("Yes to Baptism") is the creative and fun Confirmation program we share with St. James Lutheran and Zion Lutheran. Middle school youth and parents join together to explore Luther's Small Catechism, collecting tools for our "faith toolbox" for building a Christian life. Contact Pastor Aaron to participate.

youth ministry

First Immanuel high school youth are joining with youth from other area congregations for fun, food, fellowship, and more. Give Pastor Aaron a call to learn more. There's plenty of room for you to get involved!

Oregon LUTHERAN 
Youth activities

Our youth ministry is growing, and we plan to send several youth on a memorable trip to the ELCA Youth Gathering in July 2018 in Houston.  We are grateful for partnerships with other churches that make these great experiences possible!
