Mentor UMC Youth & Young Adult Ministry
Our Mission:
To Lead All on to a Path of Christ Centered Discipleship. At Mentor UMC it is our mission to help Youth & Young Adults figure out what their beliefs are in a fun, comfortable environment where they can learn alongside their peers. Our hope is that they will form lasting friendships, become leaders, and be able to take their faith beyond the walls of the church building. We want to make a space where they are Learning and Living the Love of Christ every day!
