What does it look like to grow up in the faith?  

Here at Williamsville UM Church, youth and children are an important part of church-life. As babies grow,  we like to increase their experiences in worship, Kids Connect, and service to God through working with  others. Here’s a quick approximation of the timeline of activities to increase spiritual participation in chil dren and youth: 

  • Birth– 4th grade Kids Connect, a one room school house where children hear Bible stories, engage in  crafts/activities to reinforce the Biblical concept, time to socialize and learn through play
  • K-4th Kids Choir Meets on Sundays for 20-30mins, Sings during worship approx. 4x’s per year
  • 5th & 6th Grade- Worship Enrichment: Children attend worship, during this time they learn parts of  worship, the sacraments of communion and baptism
  • 7th grade– High School Confirmation Classes typically offered every other year. Classes meet weekly  from Feb– May This is a time in a student’s life when they make the choice for themselves to join the  United Methodist Church
  • Middle School– High School– Weekly Wednesday Night Youth Group
  • Additionally, as children move into Middle School and High School, we see them engaging in service  activities. Many school districts require service hours and the church is a great way to give back to  God and also fulfill their educational requirements.
