Children's Ministries

🎨 Come create with us at Makers Mark Art Camp! Kids will paint, draw, and craft their way through stories of God’s love in a fun, hands-on environment. This free three-day day camp is designed to spark creativity and build faith—because every masterpiece starts with the Master! Whether your child loves glitter and glue or sketching and storytelling, there’s something for everyone. Hosted by First United Methodist Church—the Church in the Heart of Princeton—we invite you to join us July 16–18 from 10 AM to 12 PM (pre-k-5th grade) at 100 Center Street, Princeton, WV. Lunch will be provided each day. Let’s make art that glorifies God and friendships that last beyond the canvas!

Camp Firelight is almost here!
Join us July 27–30 for four evenings of fun, faith, and fellowship at First United Methodist Church in Princeton. This year, we’re excited to offer dinner at 5:30 PM each night—so come early, fuel up, and get ready for the adventure ahead.
Our program runs from 6:00 to 8:00 PM and includes Bible lessons, crafts, music, recreation, snacks, and more—all centered around the Camp Firelight theme, where we’ll learn to trust God and follow His light no matter where the journey leads.
This event is open to all children PreK through 5th grade.
To register or get more information, call 304-425-2283 and ask for Kalin Folden, Children’s and Youth Director.
Bring your friends and get ready for a summer experience filled with joy, learning, and community.
