United Methodist Youth Fellowship (UMYF)
What is UMYF?
We as United Methodist Youth Fellowship (UMYF) are a vibrant, energetic group who pride ourselves in uplifting and empowering the next generation in Christ.
The motto we live by is 'Zvese Kuna Kristu' (All to Christ) because we believe that all things are possible when we give it all to the Lord.
That is the motto we live by, Zvese Kuna Kristu (All to Christ). We are vibrant energetic and love getting to know one another in our pursuit for Christ. We gather in our numbers on an annual basis and come from all over Australia and New Zealand. Can't wait to engage with you in praise and worship, fellowship, activities and swallow-ship in January 2019!
A word from our Presidents!
President- Mazvita
The UMYF Australia New Zealand Area Executive team have been working tirelessly to organise our first camp ever! We give glory to God. It's not just about the energy and excitement of young people from across Australia and New Zealand coming together, but year after year we are blessed in that we experience the presence of God in an amazing way! We can not wait to see you all there!
-Mazvita
Vice President
Oscar Wilde wrote that "nothing annoys people so much as not receiving invitations" so I invite you all to our youth camp. All jokes aside, I cosign everything Mazvi said. This camp will be amazing and we will experience the presence of God - you don't want to miss out. Please bring a friend!
