  • BIBLICAL CURRICULUM: Lessons for both Sunday school and Wednesday evenings span the Old and New Testaments. Care is taken to reach each student at his or her own level.

  • LEAD IN WORSHIP SERVICES: Opportunity to help lead various worship experiences at First Methodist Church, including weekly praise team band as well as annual Youth Sunday and Advent services.

  • WORK WITH YOUTH PASTOR: Capable volunteer team works closely with the youth pastor to insure that the student's needs are met.

    BEHOLD 2010

    YES WE ARE HAVING BEHOLD!!!! At Camp Sumatanga!!!!!! I talked to Bob at camp and they are still expecting for us to be there!

    If you haven't heard, Camp Sumatanga has having a massive fundraising campaign, and are well on their way to meeting their goal. Behold is doing our part by not wavering on our lifetime commitment to camp and we will be there as long as they are there!!!!!

    Our speaker is Travis Crimm
    Our Worship Leader is Peder Eide

    Cost is $125 per person ($25 deposit to reserve a bed and $100 balance)

    Registration begins September 1...we are usually out of beds at camp by October!

    The economy is hitting most of us pretty hard....my advice on registering for Behold is to collect the $25 now...get as many of your group registered in the beginning, and add people later if there is room.

    Hope to see you at Behold 2010

    YOUTH MINISTER - Jim Maples

    Dr. Jim Maples, a dentist with a office in Florence, grew up at TFUMC. Jim and his wife, Mashea, have three children, Jessica, Lauren and Tanner who attend Tuscumbia city schools.

    Jim felt a call to really lead the youth and experienced a heart for Jesus. We are excited to have Jim on our staff.
