All Middle School and High School students are encouraged to join us on Wednesday nights as we celebrate God at work in our lives, as individuals and as a Youth Ministry!  These groups meet separately.  After a time of hanging out, each group begins with a time of praise and worship.  This is followed by a message which applies God’s Word to our lives and challenges us to live for Him.  This message is given by members of our Youth Ministries Team or one of our youth.  Both groups close with a time of worship and group prayer.  We encourage our youth to bring their friends who do not have a youth group!  Plan to be a part of our Wednesday nights at First United Methodist Church!
