"Jery grew up in the United
Church while I grew up Catholic. After we married, we
decided to pick one church for our children to give them a solid
spiritual background. Southminster-Steinhauer has been the
right place for our family because everybody is welcome without
regard of our differences."

Youth Ministries: Teenage years can be tough on kids
lives as bodies change and mature. Along with increasing
freedom, these years bring increasing responsibility to make good
choices. Figuring out how to be a Christian impacts on these
choices, while at the same time making new friends and having lots of
fun are primary concerns of Southminster-Steinhauer's youth
ministry. Today's youth are tomorrow's leaders in church and
society. We want to prepare our youth not only to survive but
thrive!

Adult
Ministries: Southminster-Steinhauer believes that each member
is a minister of the gospel according to her or his interests and
abilities. Sunday morning reflects this belief with broad
participation of the membership in worship leadership. Laypeople
also contribute their time and talents to create small group
experiences that challenge the intellect and nourish the soul.
Whether it's Tuesday Connection, which participants describe as
"a wide-ranging, free thinking" Bible study, or a Healing Touch
workshop, the life of the Spirit is explored and shared in
adult-oriented programs.
