Confirmation - For youth in 7th, 8th and 9th grade, this faith formation program meets Wednesday nights during the school year. Students are saying "yes" to their baptism by class lessons, Bible study, prayer, service, retreats and a program for students and family. We believe kids are loved into the kingdom, not only through knowledge, but also through relationships with caring adults who point to Jesus. Contact Pastor Brice for details.

Youth Mission Trips - Oak Grove high school students cooperate with Bethlehem Lutheran Church in South Minneapolis to serve in many different places, from New York to Wyoming. This summer ministry focuses on the student's faith development through service, Bible study and worship.

Camp Wapogasset - A summer camp for kids in grades 3-11 to learn to be disciples of Jesus. Each year Oak Grove has fund-raisers to help those who otherwise could not go to camp.
