Check out the U-Crew group and join us on facebook.
Middle school students meet in the Youth Lounge and high school students meet downstairs in the High School room for Sunday School at 9:45 a.m.
Middle school and high school singers are invited to lend their voices to the Youth Choir. Each spring, the Youth Choir presents a major musical. The Youth Choir also takes a concert tour in early summer.
Retreats allow us to enjoy Christian fellowship with one another in a different, relaxed setting.We go on three trips each year: a fall retreat, winter ski trip and summer beach trip.
Mission Trips
Both our middle school and our senior high youth have the opportunity to travel and do mission work during the summer. Our youth mission trips take our youth out of the comfort of their homes to be in ministry with others. We have traveled to Virginia, Kentucky, Oklahoma, Montreal, New York, New Mexico, Arizona, Tennessee, West Virginia, Goldsboro and Speed, N.C., with an emphasis on constructional and relational work with people in need. This year our high school team went to Washington, D.C., July 12-17, and our middle school mission team went to Newport, Tenn., July 26-31.
Besides the trips and other big events, the bulk of our time together is centered around Sunday night meetings, called United Methodist Youth Fellowship, or UMYF. We meet from 5-6:45 p.m. on Sunday nights, and a delicious meal is always provided. We sing, play games, pray together, do skits, join in Bible study and otherwise share in Christian friendship. Come meet our amazing counselors -- young adults who dedicate their time to nurturing the faith of middle and high school students. Come to see, learn about and know God -- the God who loves you and who cares deeply about every part of your life!
Upcoming Events:
Come join us every Sunday evening through the fall and spring from 5:00-6:30 for dinner, games and small group fellowship. We meet in the Fellowship Hall.
Faith Challenge
We have a weekly high school Bible study where we get to talk about scripture and how it intersects with our lives. Join us on Wednesdays at 7:00 p.m. in the High School Sunday School room.
Sunday School
Join us in the basement every Sunday morning from 9:45 - 10:30 for Middle School and High School Sunday School. Middle School meets in the youth lounge, and High School meets in room B3.
