North Broadway's Youth gather each summer for a transformative work camp experience to be the hands and feet of Jesus in the world. All persons are welcomed to participate in our weeks of service regardless of religious affiliation, sexual orientation, gender identity or other cultural/ethnic or economic location. Participants are invited to reflect on their service through practices rooted in Wesleyan Theology, appreciative inquiry and diversity, equity and inclusion. Youth who have completed 6th-12th grade are welcome to register. 

Watch for June 2026 location and dates in January.

Interested in being confirmed?

Grades 8-12

Date to be detemind.

Confirmation is an opportunity to respond to the grace of God available to us and to promise to live as a person of faith.

Between January 11th and March 29th, youth in 7th-8th grade (or older) are invited to attend confirmation sessions from 4:30-5:30 on Sunday evenings to explore their faith and decide if they might wish to be confirmed later in Spring 2025.
