Young Adult Ministry

What makes a “young adult?”

This group is for those between high school graduation and their mid-thirties.

Sunday School 

Join us for a casual Sunday school experience. No curriculum, no "teacher," no stuffy atmosphere. Simply join us for coffee, conversation, and episode of a video series! As we gather, we are currently watching the video series called The Way by Adam Hamilton through March; in April and May, a reading guide will be provided in the young adult room for Sunday School. If you can't come one week, no worries - this is truly a laid back experience for young adults to connect between services on Sundays.

 

Monthly In-Person Gatherings

Monthly in-person gatherings at rotating locations and/or in our Young Adult room at the church, located in the rear/basement entrance. 

 

 

Seasonal Virtual Series

Our program offers short, online videos and self-paced PDF guides for guided Bible study. These sessions are approx. 10 minutes or less, and are found on our YouTube Channel (Dandridge First UMC) under the Young Adult playlist OR on this webpage (below this paragraph). Because they are short in nature, they're perfect for a busy, young adult life style - on the go! Hopefully you will receive some inspiration as you seek to grow your faith as you grow into adulthood.

Mission + Outreach 

Our group tries to do two mission projects a year - one in the spring and one in the fall.

For spring 2024, we collected diapers for a local family-planning resource center, Life Outreach Center, in our county, which offers free pregnancy tests, ultrasounds, counseling, parenting classes, and necessary supplies to mothers & expectant mothers in our community. Diapers were collected in the young adult room in March 2024.

We also often try to support our church's blessing box.
