The Amazing Race

Life is an Amazing Race. It is filled with joy, beauty, and opportunities. But along the way, we also face plenty of hardships and obstacles.

This year, our youth will be competing in "The Amazing Race" as we embark on the next steps of our faith journey. Along the way, they will be required to complete a number of tasks. Some of these tasks will be physically challenging, others will challenge the mind, and some will require them to take a leap of faith as they strengthen their relationship with God. As our youth embark on this race, they will accumulate points, earn prizes, and determine who the winner of "The Amazing Race" will be!

High School Youth Group

Our High School youth group meets on Sunday evenings from 7:00-8:30pm. Youth group includes a time of worship, discussion, fellowship, and a snack. In addition to our worship and lesson each week, we play games, go on outings, and engage in service projects.

Middle School Youth Group

Our Middle School students (6th-8th grade) meet weekly for worship, discussion, and activities to help them grow in relationship with Christ! We meet from 6:00-7:30pm for worship, fellowship, discussion, and a snack. As a part of youth group, we play games and occasionally have outings and participate in mission work.

Camp Horizon

Each summer, youth from Woodlawn UMC attend camp at Camp Horizon outside of Ark City. It is an amazing opportunity to gather with youth from other churches for a week of incredible games, community building and Bible study. Most of our youth will tell you that this is their special place - that place where they go to connect with God as they experience the beauty of creation and encounter God in one another.

This summer, our week will be June 20-24 for Middle School, and July 25-29 for High School. Register here!

Retreats

We offer a variety of retreats for our youth that allow us to spend some time in intense spiritual development at Camp Horizon. These retreats offer an amazing opportunity to dive deeply into our faith while getting away from the stress and anxieties of our every day lives.

Mission Work

At Woodlawn, our mission is to spiritually shape people to be the heart, hands, and feet of Jesus in the world. With that in mind, our youth take seriously their calling to go into the world to serve others. In addition to occasional service projects during youth group, we take a summer mission trip each year. These trips are an amazing opportunity to be the heart, hands, and feet of Jesus while strengthening our faith in the process.
