Welcome to Palm's Youth Page
Palm's Youth Ministry program is part of the Family Life Ministry.   Youth programs are designed for 1st through 12th graders, and are age-appropriate.  During the year, a wide variety of youth activities and programs are available. 

It's NEVER too late to join youth group!  The door is always open and we welcome  new and familiar faces.  Please join us for fun-filled fellowship, faith and friendship!

Parents / Youth ... there's no better way to keep track of all the activities being planned for Palm's Youth this year than via e-mail.  If you would like to receive updates of Youth Group Meeting dates, reminders of planned activities, and the monthly calendar of events, please contact Michael Williams, Youth Director via e-mail at youth.director@palmlutheran.org.

For more information about Palm's youth programs, contact Michael Williams, Youth Director, at 717-838-3311 or via e-mail at youth.director@palmlutheran.org.

 
 
Children's Choir Parents

It's been decided this year to have a parent's group meet from 5:45 - 6:15 p.m. on Sunday evenings while the children are with Mrs. Fox for choir practice. Our hope is that parents will stay and join us rather than run home and then back again or just sit in the car! Phyllis Verderame, assisted by Jeannette Thomas, will lead the group in studying Psalms in a prayerful and meditative way. We will meet in the Narthex. It should be a wonderful 30 minutes to bring the weekend to a close and get prepared for the busyness of the week ahead.

The group began on September 18, 2011 and will meet each time there is choir. Hope to see many of you there!

 
 

PYG (Palm Youth Group) is for young people in 6th-12th grade. Friends are always welcome, regardless of religious affiliation, previous youth group experience (or inexperience), church experience (or inexperience), size, shape, color, or head size!  PYG will be meeting the 2nd Wednesday and the 4th Sunday of each month. Meetings will run from 6:30-8:30 p.m. and always promise to be entertaining, enlightening, and just plain fun! They will include some serious craziness and some serious seriousness. Games will be played, fun will be had, and friendships will be formed and strengthened...all while continuing to learn and grow on your faith journey! Be on the lookout for more information in your Sunday worship bulletins. Oh, and there will be pizza!

 

UPCOMING EVENTS

 

Sunday, February 26th 6:30 p.m.

PYG

 

 
ATTENTION!

PYG is looking for interested people of any age (yes, that means younger people, older people, sons, daughters, moms, dads, aunts, uncles, grandparents, and anyone else interested as well even those without children but with a desire to serve) to help plan, coordinate, and carry out events for the young people of PYG. This "Youth Ministry Committee" (YMC) will meet on a monthly basis in an effort to help PYG in those events/experiences where we may need help: planning, coordinating, and offering input on meeting logistics, chaperones/drivers to and from events, fundraisers, and anything and everything related to PYG. There is no membership requirement and no initiation :-). You just need a servant's heart and a willingness to be open to pitching in for whatever is needed to further the faith lives of those young people in and around Palm. Those interested in helping serve on the YMC may email me at: youth.director@palmlutheran.org. The first YMC meeting is scheduled for Wednesday, September 14th, from 6-8PM at my house (6340 Clearfield Street, Harrisburg, PA 17111).
