Orientation Training for 6th through 8th grade students

September 5th from 6 PM to 7:15 PM

All students are invited to learn about this year's confirmation program. The majority of this orientation will be spent going around the church to learn from ministry leaders the different ways that we can serve at OSL, especially on Sunday mornings. Students are required to serve in one of these roles four times each year. This is your best chance to see all the options and learn the basics. Have you ever wondered what the tech team does, if you can be in a band, how to be a greeter or any number of other fun opportunities at OSL on a Sunday morning? This is your chance.

Middle School Lock-in at OSL

The cost will be $5 and includes snacks and breakfast.  

Don't forget to bring a sleeping bag and a pillow as we will have boy's and girl's rooms where youth will be able to sleep in peace for those that want to rest or for those that have an activity the next day.

We are looking for adults to connect and be a part of our growing Youth Ministry

Do you like to hang out with teenagers, do you like to help youth understand how their choices can have a positive impact on others, or do you like to talk about God and connect important lessons to their lives? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then we would love to have you join the team. We are currently looking for people that would like to help with the Middle School Youth Group, with Youth Ministry events, and with transportation.

Please take a moment to fill out the following survey and help us meet the needs of our Youth Ministry Programs.

Anyone have a Refrigerator?

The youth room is in need of a new refrigerator as the last one has come to the end of its life cycle. If you have one available, please contact John via email or when you see me at church.

Mikah Meyer

National Parks Cabaret

Sunday, September 16 at 6:30pm

Celebrate Center of Our Savior's Lutheran Church

Join Today Show-featured pastor's kid and National Cathedral countertenor singer, Mikah Meyer, at Our Savior's Lutheran Sioux Falls for a cabaret concert sharing songs & stories from his nonstop, 3-year road trip to all 417 National Park Service sites. As heard on NPR, and seen in Living Lutheran, Mikah has spent the past 2.5 years living in a cargo van while attempting to set a world record as the youngest person to visit the entirety of the National Park System. He's been using the media attention to share a carpe diem message inspired by his father's passing from cancer, to break stereotypes about LGBT people, and to foster acceptance for LGBT Christians. To keep this project going he "sings for his supper," such as this freewill offering concert, to allow this ministry to complete its goals. Stay around afterwards, as Mikah will answer your questions following the performance!
