Empowering Youth, Creating Fun,
and Making a Difference!
We inspire our youth to lead with faith, serve with passion, and form friendships that last a lifetime.
At our church we are more than just a youth ministry – we’re a vibrant community where young people from 6th to 12th grade can grow in faith, develop leadership skills, and make a real impact. Whether through regular gatherings, youth leadership opportunities, Confirmation classes, or worship participation, UDLC is a place where youth are celebrated, supported, and empowered to thrive. We provide a safe, welcoming environment where every young person is recognized as a beloved child of God.

Youth Leadership Team
Step up, lead, and make a difference! If you’re in 7th through 12th grade, join our Youth Leadership Team and work alongside our Faith Formation Director, Deborah Jodrey and fellow volunteers to plan and bring exciting events to life. With monthly meetings, you’ll sharpen your leadership skills, gain confidence, while having your mark on UDLC’s youth experience.
Confirmation
Embark on a two-year journey of faith designed for 7th/8th graders. Through engaging lessons on core Christian beliefs and thought-provoking discussions on contemporary faith issues, you’ll deepen your faith connection. From a fall kick-off orientation to a weekend retreat, this program is as memorable as it is meaningful. After two years, you’ll have the chance to affirm your faith on Confirmation Sunday in the spring.
