We create an environment where teenagers can explore what it means to follow God and practice connecting their faith with everyday living. At FUMC, youth from grades 6 through 12 gather weekly in two different groups. Jr. High Sr. Please refer to Sunday School Education card for information on classes for youth. UMYF United Methodist Youth Fellowship gathers at two different times each week.
Open gym is held the first thirty minutes to provide free time for recreation and socializing.
The free time is followed by a snack supper together. Next, announcements are make, a devotion is given and time is spent discussing issues of concern and discipleship or participating in special programs. The groups often meet to do service projects. They also meet for programs away from the church such as going to sporting events, district youth events, to other member's homes for parties and cookouts. On Friday nights during the fall, the youth have 5th quarter following high school football games.
