Thanks for visiting the FUMC Student Ministries website.
Here at FUMC, we have two Groups that gather on a weekly basis during the school year: Jr. High Student Life is geared for students in grades 5-7, or ages 10-12. Our Jr. High students are filled with energy and are eager to grow in their faith. Sr. High Student Life is geared for students in grades 8-12, or ages 13-18. Our Sr. High students are truly world changers who are hungry and thirsty for more of God and long for authentic relationships with other young believers in Jesus Christ.
In addition to our Christian Education opportunities on Sunday mornings at 9:15am, we have two venues to get plugged into on a weekly basis: Student Life Teen Night, held on Sunday evening's from 5:00 to 7:30pm for both Jr. and Sr. High Students. LifeGroup Bible Study and Talkback, which is the small group ministry for students, meets on Wednesday evenings from 7-8pm.
Simply put, this is a group filled with young people who are seeking to "live out" their faith together - as one big family of faith. We desire to grow in faith and character. We tackle topics that are meaningful to students today. We believe in equipping and empowering young people to be the hands and feet of Christ - to be servant leaders in a world that is longing for something worth living and dying for. We find no greater cause, than the cause of Christ. Feel like something is missing in your life? Seeking something more? Come check us out!

November 12-14, 2010
There's no other way to describe the Encounter weekend, but to say that this is a weekend that is making an impact on a generation of students. The heartbeat of Encounter is to pursue God with all of our hearts through passionate and vibrant worship, powerful teaching, personal reflection and prayer - not to mention - everything that makes "camp" the most incredible place to be! WARNING: Your life may forever be impacted by this ONE weekend. Are you in?

Fall Kickoff Tailgate Party!

|
|
Sunday, September 19th
4-7pm
We are pumped up about kicking off Student Life this Fall. It all begins with a Tailgate Party on Sunday, September 19th from 4:00-7:00pm. We want to see all of our students and their families come out for a "progressive tailgate party." We will gather from tailgate to tailgate - or trunk to trunk - to enjoy great food and friendship. We'll have group games, a few "surprises," and there will be fun for people of all ages. Bring some grub to share and a lawn chair to relax in. Be sure to save the date and invite your friends!

The Students at FUMC have answered the Call to be the Hands & Feet of Jesus Christ by launching a new ministry called SERVING OTHERS SELFLESSLY (S.O.S.). This new emphasis of local missions and service projects will enable us to serve those who need it most, both locally in our county and regionally, throughout Eastern PA. We are looking for new service projects for spring and summer. If you are aware of a service project need, please contact us below or email Pastor Kris at revkrisperry@yahoo.com .
