Our Welcome Statement
We affirm that all people are created in the image of God, and as beloved children of God, all are worthy of God’s love and grace. We welcome ALL people into full participation of youth ministries at Normandale Lutheran Church and celebrate the diversity of sexual orientation, gender identity, race, ethnicity, age, faith history, socioeconomic status, and physical and mental ability. We embrace this diversity as a gift from God.

Confirmation at Normandale or “IGNITE” invites our whole congregation to journey with seventh and eighth graders as they explore their faith. IGNITE is a space to wrestle and wonder about the Gospel, the Christian Story, and how we can live in the world grounded by God’s baptismal promise to us and the whole world.
