Church of Choices:
uMatter Personalizes Options for Young Adults

Intergenerational and life-stage programming are an HPCUMC hallmark. We strive to achieve a time when young and old alike choose to “rather be at church than not.”

  HPCUMC’s new uMatter ministry serves up spirituality for diverse young adults like your favorite barista: A shot of espresso-charged fellowship that’s light on theology and topped with sprinkles of service and formation.

      Three components comprise uMatter:

uGrow—spiritual formation
uServe—service and outreach
uGather—fellowship

      uMatter member and Senior High Sunday School teacher Eric Fenner comments: “Our first major event—a coffeehouse—was a wonderful gathering with a great mixture of people.” He adds: “We have such great uPotential!” The 50-plus persons who attended last month’s event concurred: “uGather Coffeehouse series offer a great way to connect…This is a terrific concept!”
      The new ministry is coordinated by seminary student and HPCUMC member Diana McHenry. Senior Pastor Don Dixon states: “It’s gratifying to see young adults leading this effort…This group is blessed with all kinds of gifts, including capable leaders like Diana…I don’t know where she gets all of her energy!”
