Zion’s Youth Activities and Outreach

Throughout the year Zion’s youth does a variety of activities for fun and fellowship!! With many of the youth coming from different school districts, these times give them a chance to build Christian friendships.

Middle school youth participate in the fall kickoff event called the ADVENTURAMA. During the year we do activities like bowling in Zion’s own bowling alley, have movie nights, do a Super Bowl party, Murder Mystery nights, Lock-Ins, attend Lifest every summer, go to “Dells Quake” in the Wisconsin Dells, miniature golfing, go-karting, and so much more!

During school months, we also plan and work on Community Service Projects. We rake lawns, do Thanksgiving Day baskets, make a Pasta Meal for an area shelter, collect items and put together Easter Baskets for those in need,  make flower pots for the elderly,  go Christmas Caroling to nursing homes and elderly complexes, and then we find one or two different projects to do each year. The middle school youth also do a variety of service projects throughout the church.

High School youth also have activities throughout the year. We have our own Lock-Ins, outings for lunch and dinners, movie nights, Scavenger Hunts, participate in Lifest, outing to local and professional baseball games. We also go bowling, miniature golf, go-karting, and also plan new and different things to do each year.  High School youth also work on Community Projects. At the high school level, we adopt families for Christmas, have our annual “Chili Dump” and make enough chili to serve all of Appleton’s shelters, we plan a yearly summer Mission Trip and visit a different place each year to serve their needs. We go through the organization, Youthworks to get our work site. This summer we are going to the inner city of Daytona Beach, Florida.
