The First UMC Austin youth program seeks to reach all areas of our city. Through our worship, programming, trips, retreats, fun nights and Bible studies, we seek to grow in love toward God and toward each other by cultivating a community of faith and friendship that welcomes all youth, nurtures the spiritual life of everyone involved and serves God’s world. We know and understand that it is very possible to have a blast while striving to be all that God calls us to be.

Some special things you will find in our program are: an emphasis on hands-on missions with work weeks in Appalachia and Austin; Sunday evening sessions that combine an emphasis on prayer and the spiritual life with lively programs and fellowship; and highly committed adult sponsors.

Most weekly events take place in the FUMC Family Life Center, which is located across the street diagonally from the church on the northwest corner of Lavaca Street and 13th Street.
