Get involved!
We’re a busy group! Along with yearly winter retreats, we also take advantage of many opportunities to serve our church and community.
Retreats & Activities
From skiing, to whitewater rafting, to the beach, we know how to have fun! We typically do one large overnight retreat in the winter and several more smaller outings & seasonal events throughout the year, typically to the movies, concerts, and amusement parks.
Service Opportunities & Missions
While we do lots of fun things, we also stay involved with our local missions, especially with the Serving Table on the 4th Saturday of every month and the many missions of JCOC.
Every summer, we take a group of students and volunteers to the UMCOR (United Methodist Committee on Relief) Warehouse in Decatur, AL to work and prepare gifts for those in need.
We are also involved with SIFAT (Servants in Faith and Technology) each summer.
