Youth Group
Every other week, our Youth Group gathers and spends time in community while we learn more about our own faith and the world we live in. We have fun together, participate in community service, have discussions about our faith and the world, and support one another. We would love for you to join us!
Participation is open to all youth from grades 6th-12th, regardless of family membership to FUMC of Iowa City. All are welcome to participate in youth activities as they are, without exception.

Confirmation
Exploring your faith, on your own, is an important step in a life of discipleship. Here at Iowa City First, we encourage all those in Eighth Grade and Ninth Grade to participate in Confirmation: a year-long adventure. During Confirmation you will get to attend special events, take trips, as well as fulfill a few other requirements. While some classroom work is also required, it’s actually a lot of fun!
