SATURDAYS for CHILDREN & YOUTH
A new program for children & youth has begun in 2022.
Join in and gather together in the Fellowship Hall monthly on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays, from 1-3:30pm for devotion and games – usually, games/basketball for older children and youth, and crafts for younger children, and of course, food!
We’ll also occasionally have group outings in the community.
We have a small group of adult volunteers for the program, and welcome any who would like to help or participate. Write to info @ campbellunited.org for details and contact info.

Teen Youth Group is currently on hiatus…
Our Youth Director has relocated to southern California.
At this moment, we do not have anyone to replace our youth director. Please let us know if you are willing to help with our youth ministry or if you know anyone who might be interested.
For now, we have a group of people who have committed to connect with one youth for the next few months by sending a card or note to him or her once a month. They can choose to include in the note something special or just a $5 gift card. We want our youth group kids to feel like we haven’t forgotten them.
Please email youth @ campbellunited.org if you would like to help with this project. We’ll match you up with one of our youth. In this time of continuing uncertainty, your small act of kindness can make a big difference in the life of our church, especially for our youth.
~ Pastor Ouk-Yean

FRIDAY YOUTH NIGHTS
We are officially renaming our Friday program to Friday Youth Night! Whether its playing games, taking hikes, just having fun or confiding with each other, we’ll continue to plant and foster seeds of faith in Christ.

Sometimes, we’ll be online, sometimes we’ll meet up in person (as allowed).

CANCELLED 🙁 – We’ll go on our SSP trip again in 2022.
We’ll be going on a trip with Sierra Service Project (SSP) again this summer and will have a few regular fundraising projects to help with our trip expenses. SSP is a week-long trip where our youth, along with youth from other churches, serve in low-income communities. Projects include building decks and ramps, painting, replacing roofs, and other building/updating projects. If you would like to learn more about SSP, you can visit their website.

It’s a wonderful way and place to meet new people, make lifetime friends, and contribute to their extended community!

UMYF Meetups are usually held Sundays from 11:30am – 1pm on the youth (3rd) floor of the AMY Building, focusing around fellowship, study, community service projects, church involvement and fun activities off-campus as well. Often, meetings are “Brown-bag”, and members bring their lunch to eat while meeting and planning activities. Contact the coordinators: youth@campbellunited.org
We need all new forms filled out for 2017-2018.
Forms may be found and downloaded here:
There are also hard copies in the youth room of the AMY bldg. NOTE that the permission slip for offsite events is part of the medical form. If you want to go on the outing you need to have already filed or bring along the Medical/Permission form. As long as you have a medical form on file you do not need to fill out a permission slip for every outing. The permission slip covers outings through August 31, 2018. We will always include permission slips with the emails sent out to UMYF in case you would like to bring a friend.

Sierra Service Project Trip 2017
This will be Sierra Service Project‘s second year ever serving in the state of Washington. Campbell UMC Youth will go to work with the Spokane Indian Reservation 
in Wellpinit, just outside of the city of Spokane from July 9th-15th. Home to about 2,700 tribal members, this area offers summertime temperatures in the low to mid 80’s. We expect a mix of carpentry, painting and minor home repair work.
For the most part, Sierra Service Project (SSP) teams work on homes in the communities they serve. Occasionally, teams work on churches, community buildings, and schools in the hosting communities. In addition, they sometimes participate in other types of community service activities like community gardens when there is a need and the work is appropriate for youth work teams.
Check out photos of their trip while atWellpinit, WA for SSP.
For more information regarding Sierra Service Project, see their webpage.
