Events
Capernaum Club
Every Other Tuesday (Resuming this September!)
TBD!
Capernaum Club is every-other Tuesday evening! We'll have games, snacks, fun and a chance to understand that you are fearfully and wonderfully made! Parents or caregivers must walk in students. Students must be registered to attend Capernaum. There is a short informational form which must be completed. There is no cost to attending club! Can't wait to see you!
What is Capernaum?
While all Young Life activities are open to every high school student, Young Life of Washtenaw County has a dedicated program for students and young adults with disabilities, this is called Young Life Capernaum.
Young Life Capernaum gives young people with intellectual and developmental disabilities the chance to experience fun and adventure, to develop fulfilling friendships and to challenge their limits while building self-esteem through club, camp and other exciting activities. Young Life staff and volunteers model Christ’s unconditional love and acceptance as they walk alongside these young adults — filling their lives with love and support.
Who is CAPERNAUM?
Capernaum is made up of volunteer leaders (more information about leaders here!) and a group of committed adults from the community.
We are always looking for more adults to come aboard! For more infomation please contact Debbie Erickson at debbieerickson123@gmail.com

OUR LEADERS:
Capernaum is made up of volunteer leaders. Leaders are responsible for planning events, hangout with Capernaum kids during (and outside of) events, and oversee other volunteer helpers. All leaders are trained and have experienced working with kids with special needs, for example, Debbie Erickson, is a school teacher with over 10 years of special education experience. All leaders are guided by Area Director Corky Erickson.
In addition to these leaders, all Capernaum events has additional volunteers- so that every event can have a 1:1 leader-kid ratio!
