Our twice-monthly Sunday evening youth program generally involving a meal, a game, and Bible study. This is a fun, loosely structured time for young people to get to know each other and learn about God in a relaxed environment. 

 

Confirmation

Every other year, our youth participate in the confirmation process. It is a series of classes and excursions which culminate in the youth becoming official members of the church. Confirmation is open to all youth 6th grade and older.

  • Confirmation marks the time when a baptized Christian becomes a professing member of the local congregation and The United Methodist Church. (If a student has not been baptized, we can work with Rev. Janet to ensure that they are on or before Confirmation Sunday)

Confirmation next will be held in the spring of 2026. Please contact student ministries coordinator Angela Pupino at apupino@nationalchurch.org if you are interested in confirmation for your youth.

Congrats to NUMC’s 2024 Confirmands!


Youth Summer Service Week

Dates TBD for 2025

Our youth spend their week of service learning and participating in some of the many organizations working around our city to help the local community. In addition to hard work, the youth engage in meaningful discussions around issues such as homelessness, poverty, hunger, racial justice, and our environmental impact. Past service sites have included the St. Luke’s Mission Center, Ward 8 Woods Conservancy, and the Arcadia Center for Sustainable Food and Agriculture.
