Peer Ministry (Grades 9-12)
“It’s not a job. It is an attitude.” Peer ministers develop effective communication skills that allow them to reach out and help those around them. Peer ministers learn ways to become welcoming and accepting, aware of the hurts and needs of others, and how to be caring listeners. Lutherans Outdoors in South Dakota and the ELCA South Dakota Synod are embracing the wonderful opportunity and invite you to experience peer ministry. Space is limited.
