THE LINK

Youth Ministry

Our program is designed to help our children experience the love of God through the example of Christian teachers.

Our preschoolers learn lessons from the Bible as well as how to share the love of God with others!

Our Sunday School classes are between services from 9:40 to 10:40. We have a class that you will fit in.

We invite you to visit multiple classes and find the group that fits you and will help you grow in the bible, in fellowship and grow you friend circle to those who love and serve Jesus Christ. Our adult ministries make it easy for you to connect at any point that suits you. There is a place for you to be involved here!

The transition between children's ministry and youth ministry can be challenging. Our church has a ministry designed specifically for students in the 5th and 6th grades.

Shannon Booth is the youth minister here at Hartselle FMC. The youth ministry is focused on relationships, worship, and service.

We have a weekend on-site retreat in February called Discovery. Senior high students lead the weekend for the Junior Highs. It is a very meaningful experience that is one highlight of our year.
