Confirmation for Adults
Every year the church offers a confirmation class for our youth to prepare them to become full church members. You may have taken a confirmation class yourself when you were younger. Do you remember what that class covered? Maybe you joined FUMCNB from another denomination and you never took a United Methodist Membership class. Maybe you have questions about the church that you never had an opportunity to ask. This fall the church will be offering an Adult Confirmation class to give you an opportunity to ask questions and learn more about your church. The 9-week class will begin on September 3 at 6:00PM and will be facilitated by Pastor Andrew and Don Snyder. It will be based on the United Methodist Credo curriculum. Come join us for an enjoyable time as we learn more about our faith and our church!
UM Army Student Ministry Work Camp
We will be joining our fellow UMC Student Ministries at a UM Army camp. It will be a week-long mission/work camp at the beginning of June (1st-6th). We’ll be staying at Schertz UMC and working in the Schertz, Cibolo, San Antonio area to minister to the community alongside fellow UMC students. Since this is our first year participating, the cost is discounted to $75 for each camper. Adult volunteers will have their cost covered by the church. Register now.
River City Work Camp
Register your student for River City Work Camp 2025. Check in goes from 5:00-6:00 on Wednesday, June 18th. Camp will wrap up at the end of the 9:45 service on Sunday, June 22nd. We’ll be working in the community to be the hands and feet of Christ. We hope you can join us!
River City Work Camp is a camp led by our High School students and adult volunteers to specifically give our student ministry, incoming 6th grade to completed 12th grade, an opportunity to make a real difference in our community. Middle and high schoolers spend the week working on a local low-income housing project, learning, worshipping, and fellowshipping together.
We also need volunteers for overnight chaperones, meal providers, activity chaperones, and fore(wo)men to help out during the week.
Senior Sunday
Senior Sunday is coming up on Sunday morning, May 4th. We want to celebrate your high school seniors! If you have a high school senior in your life who you want to be recognized with us this year, please read this and respond.
