Rather than spending weekends catching up on lost sleep, members of Concordia Youth Ministries choose to participate in activities such as staying up all night in church basements full of high school students. CYM focuses on outreach to young people by coordinating Christ-centered activities for youth groups. CYM brings a full schedule of games, songs, devotions and other activities to more than 50 church youth groups every year. CYM offers Concordia students a unique opportunity to serve God, interact with peers and gain experience for future ministry. All students are encouraged to participate in CYM by attending meetings on Wednesday at 10 p.m. in the Janzow Campus Center.
Most members attend three to four lock-ins during the year.
CYM, which has about 50 active members, is sponsored by Professor Paul Schoepp.
