Children and Youth

Children and youth are a valued and vital part of our faith community at Hennepin Avenue United Methodist Church. Children can begin their faith journey in our nursery and progress through preschool programs, elementary, middle school and finally high school ministry programs. Each part of the journey is uniquely tailored to the needs of the age group. Children and youth ministries work closely together so our goal of building life changing friendships with Christ and others is always our top priority. Our staff and volunteers care deeply about the lives of each student and enjoy watching them grow up in faith.

Thank you for your interest in Children and Youth. Use the form below to contact this ministry and someone will email you back shortly.
