We are excited to unveil the Ramona Youth Collaborative—a dynamic, cooperative youth ministry initiative created by four local churches: First Congregational Church, Ramona United Methodist Church, Spirit of Joy Lutheran Church, and St. Mary’s In The Valley Episcopal Church. This groundbreaking collaboration aims to provide a safe, welcoming, and vibrant space where young people can grow in faith, build lasting relationships, and experience radical hospitality.

The Ramona Youth Collaborative is more than just a youth group—it’s a movement to bring love, hope, and spiritual depth to the next generation. Our vision is to reach out to youth across Ramona, especially those who don’t have a church home, offering them a place to belong, explore their faith, ask tough questions, and grow in service and community.

Through engaging programs, mentorship, retreats, and community service projects, we are committed to making sure every young person feels seen, valued, and loved. With the support of all four churches, we’ll offer a wide range of activities that help youth connect with each other, deepen their faith, and become empowered to make a positive impact in their world.

The Ramona Youth Collaborative is set to launch in early 2025, and we are eager to watch it grow! Stay tuned for more information about events, gatherings, and how your family can get involved in this exciting new ministry.
