To, for, with, and through Middle and High School Youth (grades 6-12), the Youth Ministries of First-Centenary UMC seek to nurture the growth of young disciples in our church and our community. The core of the Youth Ministry is built around our weekly Sunday School and Wednesday night "PRIMETIME" Bible Studies. We also have at least one special event per month called "DIG" where we do something off campus like bowling, paintball, etc. We also go on mission trips each summer, attend various retreats throughout the year, and enjoy other service and fellowship opportunities together.
