About Us

Welcome To SPYG! SPYG stands for St. Pete’s Youth Group. SPYG is all about shining the light and love of Christ on our youth, as well as giving them the tools and opportunities to shine light and love on the rest of the world! SPYG is not limited to only youth from the congregation, many youth from outside St Pete’s join us regularly for SPYG meetings and events. Our youth are involved in a myriad of leadership and outreach roles both inside the congregation and in the community. SPYG is all about building relationships – with each other, and with Christ. In the Youth Group Tab in the menu at the top of the page, you can find information and resources about the different things SPYG does!

SPYG is open to all current middle and high school age youth (6th through 12th grade).
We do occasionally hold events for just middle schoolers or just high schoolers, and sometimes for young adults! Meetings are typically once or twice a month on Sunday evenings. We also hold retreats, overnight lock-ins, fundraisers, day trips, and camps throughout the year!

SPYG Jr. is open to all current elementary schoolers (kindergarten through 5th grade).
We meet once a month, Sunday afternoons after church! Our Jr. meetings always have lunch served during them. Our SPYG Jr. meetings are assisted by the older SPYG members, who help to create and run both the craft and the sessions during the meetings

For more information, reach out to our Director of Youth Ministry, Kellen Michalowski, at stpeterlcyouth@gmail.com

Our last meeting of the year is this Sunday! Bring $5 for pizza and come out for some games, celebrating our graduating seniors, and more! Sometimes you look up and Ariel is driving the tractor. Life comes at you fast, and so does Ariel in the tractor. Swipe to see pure joy -> We were the dirtiest people in the pizza parlor when we got lunch after this We are farmers! Bum da dum dum da da da. We had a great time at the Wittel Farm yesterday, working alongside some new friends! We planted over 1,600 plants, meaning thousands and thousands of pounds of food will be grown and help those in need! This Saturday, May 13th, is one of our Wittel Farm Days of Mission! We have a few on the calendar this year, by popular demand. For those who may not know, or have forgotten, the Wittel Farm is owned and operated by the Lutheran Camping Corporation, the same folks who run Nawakwa and Kirchenwald! The food grown through the Wittel Farm Growing Project benefits local food banks and food ministries. We picked food in the morning that was in people's homes that same night. It is a wonderful ministry that we are proud to support! We should be part of a planting crew this time around, a part of the process we have not been a part of yet as a youth group! Thank you to everyone who came out for Breakfast Church for our annual Youth Sunday service!!! We hope you enjoyed the quiche! Join us this Sunday for Youth Sunday, where we'll be having Breakfast Church! Come for a morning of food, worship, songs, and great conversation! New dates for our Lock-In this weekend! Friday the 28th into the morning of Saturday the 29th! Thanks for hanging in there while we had to postpone it for a week, we're back in action and ready to party! The plan for the night remains the same as before, we're still going to Battle 5 Nerf Arena! See you there!
