The Youth at Tucker First UMC serve in many different ways!

  • At Tucker First UMC… through worship, music and ministry
  • In the community… through T.I.M.E., Trinity House and Action Ministry
  • And beyond… through service projects and mission trips​

VBS
Each year the Youth at Tucker First UMC provide leadership and support for the Children's Ministries Vacation Bible School.  It is a week long experience with lots of laughter, fun and experiencing God!

Youth Week
During the end of the Summer Break the youth gather for a week long experience of mission outreach and fun outings.  Cost of the outings is kept to a minimum to ensure all are able to attend.

​Our youth at Tucker First had a great week last week during Youth Week 2020. They had fun and fellowship together as well as doing mission work for our community.

​Assembling Health Kits
Forty-two health kits were created by the youth and thirty of them were given to the DeKalb Police Department. Many of the police know the homeless in our area by name and will be handing the health kits to them. The remaining kits went down to the Trinity Soup Kitchen in downtown Atlanta to be handed out with their “to-go” bags. The kits contained a washcloth, soap, toothbrush, and other toiletries.
