Student Ministry

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. Our next Confirmation class will begin September 11, 2022. Contact Melanie Jackson for more information. MJackson@fumcr.com

United Methodist Youth Fellowship

7th-12th grades
6-8 pm, Most Sundays -  Youth Worship Space

UMYF is off for Summer and will resume September 11, 2022. Be sure to check out all we have going on this summer!

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!

Student Leadership Team

The Student Leadership Team (SLT) is the youth leadership core at First UMC Richardson. Representatives from each grade serve as the sounding board for the youth group providing feedback and  ideas to the youth staff and adults. SLT members are key leaders in their Sunday school classes, during UMYF, and on trips.

Meetings occur monthly during the school year.

To participate in SLT, students must attend the first meeting, as well as commit to missing no more than one meeting for the year and serving as a leader in the youth group.
