Youth Council. Meets the 2nd Tuesday of each Month (October to June) in Room D23-24 at 7:30 PM. UMYF is committed to empowering the youth of St. Matthew UMC to be Christian disciples in our church, community, and world. St. Matthew Youth Council is responsible for deciding the monthly programming for the United Methodist Youth Fellowship (UMYF). They decide on the program “themes” and the fun activity for each month. Our youth committees help plan Youth Worship Services, Sidewalk Sunday School programs, Mission Trips, youth to youth outreach, and fundraisers; and they help publish the monthly Youth News. <

Our UMYF actively participates in District and Conference Youth events throughout the year. We firmly believe in the connectional ministries of the UMC.
