Student Ministry

Sunday School

All students will begin in-person Sunday school on August 1 at 9:45 in their 2021-22 grade levels.

For in-person Sunday school, we will do temp checks as you check in, masks will be worn, and physical distancing will continue in order to allow all to feel welcome and safe.

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.

Grade Level Hangouts

Stay tuned and make sure you receive Remind text messages for pop-up hangout events throughout the summer.

For in-person hangouts, we will do temp checks as you check in, masks will be worn as recommended by the CDC, and physical distancing will continue in order to allow all to feel welcome and safe.

Our youth group is a place where youth can come, just as they are, and discover together how awesome our God is!

Trips - Summer & Ski

FUMCR Student Ministry takes great trips that foster community within the group, provide service to others, and offer opportunities for spiritual growth.

If you have questions about any of these trips, please contact Tammie Haug at 972.996.0104 or thaug@fumcr.com.

Resources

FUMCR Student Ministry partners with parents to come along side in helping with the spiritual development of students during their teenage years. We are here to assist you in navigating through these years with all of the confusion, frustration, and questions that come along with it.

Fellowship and Fun

We believe that faith encompasses all aspects of our lives, including our play time and fellowship time.  Because of that, our youth ministry makes sure to provide plenty of activities for our youth that include good ole' fashioned fun!  Some of the things we do include:  Ice Cream Socials, Broomball, Laser-tag, Lock-ins, Whirlyball, Pool Parties, Ski Trips and much, much more. . . .

Missions

Whether it is feeding the homeless, visiting our church’s shut-ins or going on mission trips to New Mexico, Galveston, Oklahoma, San Marcos, or some other location, there are various opportunities throughout the year, for our youth to learn what it means to “serve with Christ.”
