Youth

Youth retreat Glenview United Methodist Youth (GUMY)…

…is a community of youth offering a safe  place to build healthy relationships,
…grow spiritually, and engage in  opportunities for service and mission.

As a vital ministry of our congregation, we seek to build an inclusive community where youth are accepted, known and loved for who they are.

Through  GUMY, fellowship, fun and service to others, we hope to cultivate the spiritual practices of prayer, study, worship and service. Our hope is that our youth .Youth bonding
will be given foundational opportunities to grow in faith, serve with love and hear God’s call upon their lives—now and in the future.

Games,  God-moment, Singing,
Reflection and Spiritual Growth.
