Did you know??? The church has a facebook GROUP page that is different from its main page.
Manchaca UMC Facebook Page: This is where you watch the worship services and see info about upcoming church events. It's more about listening/reading.

Manchaca UMC Facebook Group Page : This is where you interact with other church members and get more of the "inside scoop" from church leaders, too! It's more about being involved. **For the youth group, I post pictures of our youth events and sometimes include info about the Connect Group lessons we've done.**

I encourage ALL parents and youth to request to be in the Manchaca UMC Group !
Every Wednesday evening throughout the summer, join us at 7pm. We are talking about the topic of friendship. We start as a large group but then quickly get into zoom breakout rooms for discussion.

Covid-19 Stuff ... How we plan on staying safe at our events:

* Please do not attend if you feel ill, or have had a fever or any symptoms of any illness within the past 14 days.
* Masks are required to participate with our group. Please bring your own. 
* Students will be asked to practice social distancing between themselves and others. We all love to shake hands and hug, but for now just wave and chat from a distance.
* Use hand sanitizer. We will have some available for everyone to use at the beginning and as needed throughout. 
* We would love to see you, but if you… are at risk, have a compromised immune system, are sick, are showing signs of respiratory illness, currently have a fever above 99.6, or have been around anyone that’s been sick in the last 14 days, please stay home.

 We believe with these precautions and by being outside that we will be safe. But we understand there is risk any time one ventures out of their home. Thus, that some families will not feel comfortable letting their student participate. There will be other opportunities in the future and we hope to see everyone on our weekly Wednesday evening Connect Groups zoom meetings.
