Youth Ministries

Grace United Methodist Youth (GUMY) exists to empower, educate and equip our youth to love God, live like Jesus and change the world.

We believe that through intentionally connecting with God and others, regularly devoting time to Scripture and prayer and frequently serving our community and world, we can build a strong foundation that will support a lifelong relationship with Christ.

Confirmation Registration is now open!

Confirmation is open for students 8th grade or above who want to become active members at GUMC, and grow in their relationship with God, other students, adult mentors and learn more about who they are in the world.

An information meeting and pizza dinner for students and parents and mentors is on February 8th, 6:30-8pm.

Classes begin February 15th, and the Confirmation Ceremony occurs on Sunday, May 7th at the 9am service.

Classes will be every Wednesday, 6:30-8pm. The first half-hour Confirmation participates in GUMY Youth Group, playing games and hanging out in the Youth Room.. At 7, Confirmation separates to be with their mentors and teaching pastors for class.

As an adult leader you’ll be equipped with materials to help facilitate conversation with your student, in conjunction with the teaching of the pastor. The purpose of Confirmation is to help students discover what they believe, who they are, where they stand in the world and to nurture students in their faith by helping them grow in their relationship with Christ and with one another.

Each Confirmation session involves a time of teaching, guided conversation, and focused time between mentors and students, as well as engage in interactive activities with one another.

The time commitment is Wednesday nights, 6:30-8pm, from February 15th until the first week of May. If you have any questions, please reach out to
