Local Church Support for Young People

2016 Book of Resolutions, #3461

Whereas, The United Methodist Church supports young people and is called to minister to them; and

Whereas, the young people in The United Methodist Church are in need of growth and revival churchwide; and

Whereas, in order for young people to grow in the worldwide church, they must first grow in the local church,

Therefore, be it resolved, that each local church do all in its power to support and strengthen young people’s ministries at its local level, so that they may be strengthened worldwide.
