 Senior High Youth and Sponsors in Woonsocket, Rhode Island for 2009 Mission Trip
Park Hill's United Methodist Youth Fellowship (UMYF) is an energetic group of young people, ages 11-18. We are divided into two groups: Mid-Highs and Senior Highs, with a common goal of fellowship - having fun in a Christian environment! UMYF is a group of young people who are committed to our Church. We are a diverse, creative and involved group. Our UMYF is a group of leaders in our Church and the larger United Methodist Church. It is a group of young people...and some devoted adults, who continually nourish our Spiritual Growth! We'd love for you to join us. Join us on Facebook (PHUMC YMWF and Alumni).

In the Summer our Mid-Highs take a Challenge Trip where we do Mission Work and challenge ourselves through whitewater rafting, rock climbing and rapelling. Our Senior Highs take an out-of-state Mission Trip.
