KINGDOM 

Our vision at Friendswood Methodist is that our students become fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ and reflect his teachings in their daily lives. We strive to create an atmosphere of authenticity where people can truly be themselves while experiencing the life changing power of Jesus. It is our mission and hope that all students experience then share the life-changing power of Jesus Christ everywhere and every day.

LOCATIONS & TIMES

SUNDAY MORNINGS - 9:30

We will meet in the new youth lounge located in Wesley Hall at 9:20 so that we can head over to the 9:30 service together as a youth group. We generally sit in the front left of the Sanctuary, but students are more than welcome to sit with their families.

SUNDAY MORNINGS - 11:00

6th through 12th grade students may join us for Sunday school in Wesley Hall at 10:30 following the 9:30 celebrate service. We will have breakfast and games in Wesley Hall before breaking off into our Sunday school classrooms.

KINGDOM SUNDAY NIGHT

Kingdom Sunday night is a weekly gathering for all students to strengthen their faith and focus their lives on Jesus through Gospel-centered teaching and student lead worship, while also having a ton of fun connecting with others. We meet Sunday evenings in Wesley Hall and share a meal together in small groups.. So come join us and feel free to bring a friend or two!

 

Kingdom Sunday Night for Junior High and Senior High: 5:00 pm - 7:30 pm

TACO NIGHTS

TACO night (Talk About Christ Openly) is a weekly gathering of students who come together to develop Christ-centered community and relationship through delicious tacos and open discussion. Taco night is led by faithful parents who want to see our students' faith become the foundation of their lives.

 

We meet on Thursday nights during the school year from 6 - 7:15 pm in host homes. There is also a Tuesday night option for our Junior High students from 6 - 7:15 pm as well.  We understand that life is busy so we want everyone to know we will be respectful of time. We will start no matter what at 6pm and have a hard cutoff time at 7:15 even if we have to end some great discussions, we can always resume next week.

 

If you are looking for a place to plug in this is the place to do it. Something beautiful happens when students are able to finally stop and relax in a house setting over a shared meal. For schedule and host location please click the link below. 

CONFIRMATION

Confirmation class of 2023/24 will be launching September 10th and we couldn't be more excited. Confirmation class will meet in Wesley Hall in conjunction with our Kingdom Student Ministry Sunday schools. This is for all 7th and 8th grade students. Confirmation is a year long study where we take our 7th and 8th grade students through the foundations of what we believe as followers of Jesus and as the Methodist church. Throughout confirmation, students will meet in small groups each week to build relationships with their peers as well as adult leaders. We will take field trips to other churches including Mary Queen Catholic and Congregation Shaar Hashalom, a Jewish synagogue. We will also have a confirmation retreat the weekend of April 5-7. This retreat is an amazing time for the students to go deeper into their faith and grow in relationship with one another. Confirmation ends on May 19th where each student will be given the opportunity to be baptized and join the church as a professing member.

 

Confirmation is a big step in a student's faith journey and we are so thankful and blessed to have the opportunity to help come alongside your student as they step deeper into their faith and take ownership of what it means to truly believe in and follow Jesus Christ. 

 

We have gone ahead and attached the full year's confirmation schedule below. So please make sure to download this and mark your calendars.  

 

We are making a few adjustments to our registration and will send out a new link ASAP. If you have already registered you will not need to re-register.
