Youth Ministry

Youth Ministry at Hillside is an opportunity for our 6th - 12th grade students to grow in thier faith, take ownership of thier relationships with Jesus, and honor him with thier lives. To help them along the way we have developed a progam of worship, study, service, and holy leisure.

FORGE

Confirmation

Summer '25

FORGE is our youth gathering every first and third Sunday of the month. We meet with other area Methodist church youth at Norton Park UMC in Duluth for food, games, worship, and a lesson. This is the time our students are shaped into disciples of Jesus alongside peers seeking to grow in faith. Join us from 5:00-7:00 PM.

Confirmation is a time of exploration, learning and growing for Middle and High School students designed to help students claim the Christian faith as their own. We do this by forming relationships with one another and our mentors and venturing into the community to learn about faith in action. For more information contact the church office and we can get you involved in this important faith formation program that runs from September to April.

This Summer we are excited to offer multiple chances for our youth to celebrate and serve.
