To be effective in our ministry to students at Gulf Cove UMC, it is first our goal to exemplify Christ’s love to our students and then extend that love to the community around us.

Vision

It is the vision of the student ministries at Gulf Cove UMC to offer strong Christian examples of unhindered love and encouragement for the kids and teens within our church and within our community. Through creative Bible lessons it is our hope to not only educate students in sound biblical doctrine, but to also equip them to deal with life struggles, peer pressure, family stress, etc. in a Christ-like manner. It is our vision to extend that example beyond the classroom as we build relationship with students – through intentional contact and fellowship – encouraging and equipping them to take the faith learned and extend it outward in their own lives.

Purpose

It is the purpose of the student ministries at Gulf Cove UMC

  • To love students fully and completely
  • To be living examples of Jesus Christ
  • To equip and empower students to step into their worlds as beacons of Christ’s love and light

Active Youth

Our Youth are very active within their own group and with outreach to the world.

These teens do everything from participating in Salvation Army Bell Ringing, caroling during the Christmas holidays, participating as leaders in our annual Vacation Bible School, and even went on a week-long mission trip to Tennessee working with other teens from around the country to make a difference.

Yet being a teenager must include fun and these kids know how to do it. From beach parties, skating parties, mini-golf, bowling, summertime Tuesday lunch bunch, and more – the sky’s the limit for these young people. 

They are really leaders, not blind followers. It’s a joy to watch how they take charge and plan for a bright future.
