U.m. army: July 6-12, 2025

Registration link for both adults and youth:  https://www.umarmy.net/Registration/Indv/4781/
 We will be heading to Edna, TX this summer for U.M. Army. The cost is $137.50 for each registrant. This is half the cost of the original price! For those of you who have never been, or maybe it's been awhile, here's a quick rundown of the week:
Worship
Every morning and evening there will be a time of worship. These times worship are based on the camp theme. This will include an intentional space of worship, a message, music, prayer, and reflection.
Worksite
You will be divided into work teams and have the opportunity to meet students from other churches! Projects will range from yard work, painting, installation of wheel chair ramps and more.
Games
Each day you will have the opportunity to get involved in a time of fellowship through activities and games. Some examples may include nine-square and large group games.
U. M. ARMY - TX/LA is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with offices in Huntsville, Texas and Tyler, Texas. U. M. ARMY (United in Mission: Action Reach-Out Ministry by Youth) began in 1979 with a youth mission trip to Athens, Texas, where youth groups from several Houston churches gathered to provide home repair assistance to people in need.

Our mission is accomplished every summer when thousands of youth and adult volunteers sacrifice a week of their vacation to join God’s ARMY. Using a local Methodist church as a base where they gather to have their meals, sleep in classrooms, and worship in the Sanctuary. Participants spend each day of the week providing free home repairs for low-income, elderly, and disabled homeowners in the surrounding area.

Vacation Bible School: July 27 - July 31, 2025

As we near the end of the summer, I want to encourage our youth to serve this summer. VBS is a really fun and simple way to do so, and connect with some of our younger kiddos in the Children’s Ministry.
We will have no special programming or events this week unless they pertain to success of VBS!
If your youth is interested in volunteering for this event, please fill out the form below.
This summer we will be placing the youth in different areas that will best suit their gifts and talents. We are so excited for this week and the intergenerational connections that will be made!

Save the date - Pool Party: Saturday, aug. 22

Wrapping up the summer can be bittersweet, so let’s end it together in fellowship! The youth will get together for a pool party on the Saturday after VBS.
