Winter/Spring Youth Calendars Now Available

When you come to church for Christmas Eve, grab a new winter/spring activities calendar from the top shelf of the Youth News Rack (in the Narthex).  If you’re out of town, grab one in January. They’re always lime green.

Confirmation Classes to Begin in January!

PUMC confirmation classes are for students in grades 7-10 who would like to confirm their membership and join Parker United Methodist Church.  These classes will be offered Sunday mornings from 10:45-12:00 Jan.–Apr. (with a Sunday off each month) in the youth room (#144).  If you have questions or would like to register your student, please email April at [email protected] and give her: your student’s name, grade, parents’ names, address,  and a contact phone number. (These are the dates for class: Jan. 14, 21, Feb. 4, 11, 25, March 4, 11, 25, April 8, 15, 22 and Confirmation on April 29th.)

A Bible Study for High School Students Starting in January!

Kurt and Tina Stroman are beginning a new 8 week Bible study at their house on Tuesday nights starting January 9th from 7-8 PM.  They’ll be leading a study on the book of Ephesians.  Although Ephesians is one of the shortest books in the New Testament in terms of word count (only 6 chapters and 155 verses), it is perhaps the most applicable to today’s culture.  Please RSVP to Tina ([email protected]) so they will have enough books ordered to begin the class.  Cost of the book is $13 and can be paid on the first night of class (Jan. 9th).  This will be at the Stroman’s house:  11692 Larkspur Drive, Parker, 80134.

Can You Provide A Meal in 2018?

Youth dinners are a vital part of our Sunday evenings and help provide a true time for fellowship and fun.  If you are able to provide a snack dinner some evening, please choose a date that works best for you. Click here to access the signup genius – and thank you so much!

Youth Fundraiser

Please mark, Friday, February 9th on your calendar as a youth Fundraiser evening.  We will be hosting a free church-wide dance for everyone.  We’ll have refreshments, a small silent auction and several ways people can donate throughout the evening. More details to come!
