Sunday School

All meet in the Youth Lounge (rooms 6 & 7) downstairs in the Youth Center.  During the school year, the Sr. High meets in room 5 and the Middle School in room 4 to discuss life issues in relation to Scripture.

MYF!!!

Sunday evenings is Methodist Youth Fellowship.  The Middle School meets from 5:00-7:00pm and the Sr. High from 6:00-8:00pm.  Evenings include games, dinner, singing, talk and discussion, worship, small group fellowship, and joys & concerns.  Summertime also brings new adventures!  


Mission Trips

Read about our recent trip to Denver, Colorado - click here.

The youth will be headed to Washington D.C. on June 12-20, 2011 to work with the homeless through the Center for Student Missions. In addition to our mission work there, we will take two days to see the sights in our nation’s capital. We will fly out on Sunday, June 12 and fly back on Monday, June 20. Because of the added expense of flying, renting a van when we get there, a two-night stay in a hotel and food for two extra days (food during the mission week is provided by CSM), we will need to do a lot of fundraising to cover the roughly $1,200 per person.

Look for upcoming opportunities to help the youth go to DC - like our White Elephant Auction, Sunday, October 3, Rent-A-Youth November 29-Dec.11, and our Valentine’s Banquet, February 13.


Ski Trip

Every other year, our group ventures out in the snowy winter (which means out of Texas) for a time of fellowship and focused devotion.  No one can help but find God & see God’s awesome work while skiing down magnificent mountains. 


Sweet Potato Round-Up

This annual food donation service project is sponsored by the Gleaning Network of Texas. Youth glean yams left behind in the field by farmers in order to help provide food for those without. 

Lock-Ins

Spend non-daylight hours with fellow youth doing large group activities, games, team building exercises, watching movies, and having devotional time. 

 

MLK Exchange

Nothing like fellowship and service to begin the year right!  This event combines our youth group with other local United Methodist youth to play, learn, and serve while remembering the great contribution of Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr.
