Youth
6th - 12th Grades
Our vision for Smyrna First Youth is to send students on their journey in a manner worthy of God by loving God, each other, our community and our world.
Sunday Night Youth
Most Sunday evenings students in 6-12th grade gather for food, fellowship, and fun! We have a snack supper at 5:30pm ($5 suggested donation) provided by parents/volunteers, followed by a devotion and a different activity each week. Once a month we head out into the community for different events that have included escape rooms, Top Golf, and a progressive dinner.
Sunday Morning
Impact Groups
Each Sunday morning we gather C210 for High School; and C212 for Middle School from 10:10 – 10:50am to explore relevant biblical teaching, connect with one another and enjoy snacks and coffee. If there is a month with a 5th Sunday we combine with rest of the church discipleship groups and work on a mission project for 5th Sunday Mission Day.
Confirmation
Confirmation is for 6th and 7th grade students who want to journey together in discipleship through classes, service, speakers retreats, and developing a deeper walk with Christ, leading to membership in the United Methodist Church. Classes start in the fall and are for students who are curious about the United Methodist Church, what we believe, and are ready to step into a faith of their own more deeply.
For Parents
Raising teenagers can be tough! We are here for you. Our goal is to partner with you as together we provide the education, faith foundation and love for your student that will “Send them on their journey in a manner worthy of God.”
