Youth Ministry
"Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity." - 1 Timothy 4:12
Calvary has many options for our youth to be involved, starting at a young age and taking them into adulthood.
Pathways offers summer camp opportunities for youth of all ages, from elementary aged students through high school.
Pathways is a Bible Camp Corporation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. Pathways camps and programs are used by over 150 churches in northwestern Minnesota.
