Youth Ministry

All are welcome here

Our goal is to provide an environment where youth feel comfortable to be themselves and open to what God has in store for them. We want to walk alongside them as they discover, develop, and own their faith; experience God's grace; and engage the world to share God's love.

Spring 2024 Calendar     Summer Camps & Trips

  • Sunday School
    Sunday School

    9:45 am every Sunday

    Sunday school plays a vital role in helping to build a solid foundation for the faith journey of our 7th-12th graders. We gather first as a large group in our worship space, then divide into high school and junior high classes

    Confirmation
    Seventh graders learn the fundamentals of the Christian faith and United Methodist history with the goal of growing more like Christ, loving God and our neighbor in all that we do. Mission opportunities, church visits, and a late-night event allow the group to have fun and serve together. Contact Melanie Jackson for more information. MJackson@fumcr.com

  • UMYF
    United Methodist Youth Fellowship

    7th-12th grades
    5:30- 7:30 pm, Most Sundays, Youth Worship Space

    UMYF is a great time to come together as a group to play, sing, learn, and pray together. Snack Supper is served at each UMYF gathering.

    Youth gather at FUMCR for fellowship, worship, and to participate in open and honest discussions about teenage life, pressures, and culture. Our youth group is a place where youth can come, just as they are, and discover together how awesome our God is!
