WEEKLY YOUTH MEETING SCHEDULE
Our Youth meet every Thursday morning at 7:30 AM at Java Blend during the School Year and Every Sunday Evening at 5 PM in the Epworth House to have coffee, study the Bible, hang out, fellowship, and have fun. We also plan special events throughout the year for our Youth to have fun and to grow closer in community.
At Rural Retreat United Methodist Church, we feel that one of the most significant investments we can make is in our Youth. We take the Safety of our Youth seriously. All our staff and volunteers go through Safe Sanctuaries Training and a background check before serving with our Youth ministry. You can view our Safe Sanctuary Policy Here: RRUMC Safe Sanctuary Policy
We are blessed to have an active Youth Ministry that loves and nurtures our kids and teaches them about the love of God. We are committed to teaching the Bible and using Scripture to help build the foundation for their lives. This is provided in several different ways:
Sunday School
Sunday School is available for Youth every Sunday morning at 10 AM. This is a time of learning about the Bible, fellowship, and fun!
Special Events
Throughout the year, we host special events for Youth to learn and experience Faith Formation in fun and engaging ways.
Summer Camp
We are blessed to have Camp Dickenson, one of the 4 Conference Camps, nearby. Located in Fries, VA, Camp Dickenson provides Summer Christian Camping for Youth of all ages. Visit www.campdickenson.com for more information.
Community Service & Missions
We believe that serving is a vital part of spiritual maturity. We plan and provide different ways for our Youth to serve in the community and the world through community service projects and mission trips.
Resurrection
Resurrection is an annual event of worship and spiritual growth for Youth and Youth Mentors. Each year, over 5,000 come together in Pigeon Forge, TN, to celebrate the God of The Resurrection and for young people to encounter the Lord in new and deeper ways.
