Our Mission
Statement
"To walk with youth in their
journey to know Christ by creating an environment in which youth can
experience Christian communion to hear the gospel to know God's love
and to respond in faith by loving and serving others...for in all of
this we are making disciples of Jesus Christ."
Sugar Hill
United Methodist Church recognizes how important the middle
and high school years are. They are a time of challenge, change,
fun, and confusion as our youth investigate who they are in the
Lord. SHUMC Youth Group helps teens on that journey of
self-discovery. Our youth are vibrant members of the church
community.
Our youth
group is open to all kids in grades 6-12. All area middle and
high schools are well represented in the group, creating a natural,
healthy diversity.
Sunday school for jr. and sr. high students
is held on Sunday morning from 9:45-10:45 in the youth suite near
Wren Hall. The Youth meet every Wednesday night at 5:30 for food,
fun, and fellowship. The Youth group also meets on the third Sunday
at 5:30 p.m. for movie night and dinner is provided.
The SHUMC
youth group, under the leadership of Youth Director Carmen
Hoffmeyer, is a sound, solid, Biblically based program that allows
open discussion and study of the Scriptures and their relevance
today.
With an
average youth group attendance of 14 youth,
our group is small enough that new attendees will feel very welcome
in this tight-knit group.
If you are interested in learning more about our dynamic
youth program, please contact Carmen Hoffmeyer at 870-772-5707.

Souper Bowl
of Caring
Over 15 years ago, a single prayer led a senior high youth group to
a simple, yet powerful idea to fight hunger and poverty in their
community. The Souper Bowl of Caring calls youth to
action-individuals, youth groups, civic organizations and schools
are making a difference in the lives of others through this simple
movement of caring.
www.SouperBowl.org . SHUMY will be participating in this
wonderful program on February 4th. Please help us feed our
community by donating can and/or dry goods.
"Come and see..."
(John 1:46)
