Youth

Our goal as a Youth Group is to love students (6th through 12th grades), and to encourage and challenge students to live boldly the life Jesus Christ calls us to as His followers. We believe in sharing life together, living a life of worship, and serving those in need. If you are interested in knowing more about Marlow First Youth, please contact the Church Office at (580) 658-2765.

The SeniorĀ High Youth study on Sunday mornings relevant and age-appropriate topics to grow our faith in Christ. On Wednesday nights, we begin our time together praising the Lord in Youth Choir, playing games with the Mid-High Youth, and finally enjoying dinner and Bible Study using the Bible Study Guide Curriculum.

Mid-Day Manna

Mid-Day Manna is an outreach ministry of our church to the Marlow High School students and teachers, and our community’s First Responders. We provide a hearty meal during the lunch break period on the 1st Thursday of every month while school is in session. We look forward to serving, encouraging and praying for everyone who walks in the door hungry.

Confirmation

Confirmation is a time for your youth to experience the teachings of Christ and learn more about Methodist theology. It is a time to explore more of your faith journey with others. The class is geared towards 5th and 6th graders and is taught by our pastor [older youth and adults are also welcome to attend]. The class begins each spring following the traditional service (10:45am) and is six weeks long.

More information about joining the Confirmation Class will be posted in our News and Events Calendar.
