What do our 2010 seniors say about
Youth Ministries at FUMC-Ann Arbor?
“Over the years the youth group has become like a family, which loves all of us unconditionally, so I would just like to thank the youth group and the congregation for supporting us in all of our endeavors, because it has meant the world to me.” Charlotte
“For me, the best parts about our youth program were the people that I met and the relationships that I made along the way. Whether that person is a four-year-old child in Puerto Rico, a 16-year-old student in Kenya, or just a teen in Ann Arbor, the people that I have met and gotten to know over my six years in this group have without a doubt shaped my life for the better.” Michael
“I have met some of my best friends in this youth program. Friends who are always there for you and let you be the person you really are.” Jessica
“Throughout the years, youth group has become one of the most important parts of my life. I always look forward to seeing my friends every Sunday. I feel extremely blessed for all my experiences on mission trips—I have learned about other cultures, God, and a lot about myself. Bwana Asifiwe!” Allison
“Thank you for letting me be myself. Youth Group has solidified my faith in the Lord and has taught me that every disciple of His shall be treated fairly and equally as we are all loved by Him and loved by this youth group.” Jimmy
“Through all of the mission trips I have taken to Zeba, Puerto Rico, New Orleans, South Dakota, and Kenya, I have had so many wonderful experiences, and met so many people I will never forget. I will always remember the amazing friends I have made while in this group. Thank you all for coming with me on this journey, it has been great!” Sam
