Student Ministry @ FaithWestwood
Our students are involved, encouraged, and loved. We challenge our students to discover their role among Jesus's people. And we love seeing them invest their unique talents in the whole church body.
Whether worshiping together at MIDWEEK, serving our community, diving deep into God's word, or just having fun, our student ministry is a place where there's room for every story in our walk with Jesus.

[MIDWEEK]
During the school year, our Student Ministry meets on Wednesday evenings for MIDWEEK, a time for worship, fellowship, connection, and fun. Students take part in both large and small group experiences, serve on projects for their church and community, or just kick back and have fun too
Confirmation
For most kids, FaithWestwood offers Confirmation classes for students starting in their
eighth grade year.
Our Confirmation program offers bible-based discussion with an emphasis on building community, filling in the blanks in a child's journey with Christian education, and answering the question, "Who is God in my life?" Students participate in a series of Confirmation meetings and at the end of these classes, it is each student's choice whether to declare their discipleship to Jesus and make their partnership covenant with FaithWestwood.
If you find us after your eighth grade year, be sure to contact Leah Dinoso to discuss possibilities.

Opportunities to Serve
Whether in Omaha or across the country, our students serve their community in
many different ways.
Throughout the year, our Student Ministry participates in church-wide activities, filling in wherever needed to serve our ministries and our congregation. Students are also active in Vacation Bible School, in our annual Christmas pageant, Trunk or Treat, Drive-thru Live Nativity, and in other events too.
And in the summer, our Student Ministry heads out on service-oriented trips that take them to places locally and nationally to lend their hands and hearts to service.
For Fun & Faith
And in the spirit of just being a kid in God's world, our Student Ministry also plans periodic events that are just about fun, building relationships, and making life-long memories. Local retreats, lock-ins, trips to fun venues, and other get-togethers are part of that goal every year.
