Madison FUMC Students seeks to come alongside students (6th – 12th Grade) through intentional relationship so that they may experience the love of Christ and learn to walk with Him and with others. Our hope is that as God’s love through us draws students to Him, students allow His love to work through them to draw others to Him.
Because we believe that journeys are made of steps taken in a particular direction, our services and ministries are organized around four habits we desire each student develops on their faith journey: Spending Time with God, Spending Time with Others, Using Our gifts, and Sharing Our Story.
It is our prayer that no matter where a student is on their faith journey, we would be allowed to come alongside them on that journey so that together we could experience the life-change that happens when our lives intersect with the life and teachings of Jesus lived out in a community of people who desire to walk with Him
