 Youth Ministry
Our youth program is a fun and exciting way for our young people to gather and support one another, grow in their faith, and participate in various service projects. Monthly activities such as community service, fellowship and fundraisers are scheduled as well as yearly Mission Trips and ELCA Youth Gathering events.  Youth in grades sixth through twelfth are invited to jump right in to the latest happening in the Youth Group.  See our Youth Page for current activities and projects.

The Choir is for high school youth and adults.  This group rehearses on Thursday night from 6:00-7:00 PM and they sing at services from September through the first of June.

Handbell Choir is open to youth in 7th grade through adults who have gone through an introductory training with the directors.  Practices are held on a Saturday morning each month.  The bell choir performs one Sunday each month.
Praise Band performs on the 3rd Sunday of each month.  Any age can join, and any singers and instrumentalist are welcome.  One practice is held before the Sunday worship.

 

 Stephen Ministry
Everyone goes through difficult times. Having someone to care, to listen, to share God's love with you can help you get through the confusion, stress, or loneliness you may be experiencing. Stephen Ministers are trained to provide that Christ centered one on one confidential care and friendship.

 Service is not just what we attend on Sunday mornings, but it is what we do.  If you are looking for volunteer opportunities at Gloria Dei a few options are signing up to be a worship assistant, taking out the trash, hosting coffee hour, serving on Council or a committee, singing in the choir, playing bells in the bell choir and so many more.  Contact Kim in the office to find out more about service opportunities at Gloria Dei.

 Gloria Dei also provides opportunities for fellowship through Coffee Hours following worship, Congregational potlucks, special social gatherings like Outdoor Worship, Progressive Dinners, baseball games, and bowling night.

 As we feel called to reach beyond the walls of our building, Gloria Dei actively participates and supports service groups and organizations such as The Tecumseh Service Club, Share the Warmth, Hospice of Lenawee County, Lutheran Social Services, and ELCA Disaster Relief Fund plus others.

 Gloria Dei is a part of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America (ELCA).  Our church is located in the South Eastern Michigan Synod.  The ELCA and South Eastern Michigan Synod websites are www.elca.org and www.semisynod.com, respectively.
