Youth and Education
"Youth ministry: we're not in it for the income, we're in it for the outcome." We take pride in how much our children learn and grow during their time here. We learn about God and how we can serve, and play and have fun. Advent hosts Vacation Bible School, family game nights, lock ins, and service projects. Join us!
Advent Sunday School
Sunday School is canceled because of Covid-19. We look forward to bringing classes back when it is safe to gather again.
Online Sunday School
Sparkhouse / Augsburg Fortress is releasing free Sunday School materials every Tuesday for family Sunday School. This includes video, Bible study based on readings from the previous Sunday, illustrations, music, and more!
