Youth Mission Statement

We the youth at WUMC fully believe in the church being a place where youth should  feel accepted and loved. We are all a work in progress and we strive to be accepting of those who are not “just like us” as we serve with a heart like Christ with love and compassion.

we are looking for some one who would like to step up and be in charge of ensuring that we have ushers and readers for each of  the services., it would be greatly appreciated.  This is an integral part of the worship experience and is in need of an enthusiastic person who is willing to put time in training the volunteers in the importance of the position. If interested please see me , call or email me at 301-845-9860,  kathleenwhite1@verizon.net.

Remember ALIVE is not so far off.  Prepare now by getting in on the lowest price available.  $65 per person. I will let you know the price for lodging, food, etc. at a later date. Don’t miss a great time and you will want to keep going back.

Remember, we can’t pull off the oyster dinner without your help. So, I am asking all youth to step up and sign up to help out on Oct 7^th and 8^th.

Planning a NYC trip for the beginning of the new year.  You can go and just shop or take in a show. Just relax, have fun and break the cabin fever blues that ususally set in by this time. This trip is also being  used as a fundraiser. I will be using it as a youth fundraiser for our upstairs project.  Tickets are $69 per person.  We are working towards carpet and curtains, we can do it with your help. So climb on board and lets have a ball.  Great fellowship will be had by all.
