Confirmation is a 6-month discipleship experience, designed for students 8th grade and up, taking a deep dive into Scripture. You’ll be paired up with a mentor to explore deep questions of life and faith with monthly gatherings for group teaching. The year is capped off with Confirmation Sunday, in early June, to celebrate the ways in which God has been at work in your life.

Campbell Farm is the Middle School highlight of the summer! Each summer, PLY heads to the Yakama nation on an incredible three-day discipleship trip in partnership with “The Campbell Farm.” Campbell Farm is a community and retreat center in Wapato, WA, where “all are welcome to come and sit at Christ’s table.” The farm supports the greater community of those living on the Yakama reservation; hosting services, retreats, women’s support groups, day camps for kids, and a meeting place for various other support groups. This trip includes immersive cross-cultural learning experiences and plenty of summer fun, including the famous cliff jumping and floating down the Yakima River!

Each year, PLCC partners with Covenant Kids Congo to participate in the Global 6K, providing clean water for communities in the D.R. Congo! Why 6 kilometers? Because 6K is the average distance that people in the developing world walk for water – water that is often contaminated with life-threatening diseases. In fundraising for this event, we empower vulnerable children and families with the provision of lasting clean water. This is an all-family (and dogs!) event! Together we walk, stroll, run and end our time celebrating at the Sammamish commons enjoying the Rig-a-Palooza activities: food trucks, prizes, treats, bounce houses, balloon artist and face painting! See it in action!

Contact Pastor Mark if you’re interested in being part of the trip!

This is a multigenerational mission trip to the Dominican Republic coming up in Summer 2025. 17 participants will partner with Children of the Nations (COTN)—which has earned an excellent 98% rating on charitynavigator.org—to support impoverished and marginalized communities in the Barahona region.

PLCC has a longstanding partnership with YoungLife Capernaum, a ministry that serves students with special needs and their families across Sammamish, Issaquah, Bellevue, and Redmond. This evening event is one of the highlights of the year, where students put their skills on display during a talent show… a great way to come together with the opportunity to serve in multiple ways throughout the evening!
