To The Parents
Greetings!,
Both Middle School and Sr. High youth groups are in full swing. The middle school has started going through “Life in 6 Words” a curriculum by Dare2Share. Life in 6 words “God. Our. Sins. Paying. Everyone. Life.” is the Gospel explored, come join our 6-8th grade youth and learn about the greatest gift ever given.

In an effort to get to know parents better, I would like to meet with you and talk about the spiritual formation of your child and/or any way SUMC Youth Ministries can help you as a parent in this area. It is the hope to SUMC Youth Ministries to provide a safe and uplifting environment in which youth of all ages can come to know and grow in their Christian faith. Please contact me by phone, email, or Facebook to set up a time.

Matthew 5:13-15 (ESV)
“You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people's feet. “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house.
