At Wall Street, we are passionate about lending a hand to our community as well as stretching our reach to touch those outside our city. We offer many opportunities throughout the year to give back. Click the button below to learn more or subscribe to our newsletter to stay updated on mission news.
Youth group and summer camps are just a few ways children can get involved at Wall Street UMC! Our kids have been busy with fun times through compassionate service and learning together. Please click the button below to learn more ways for kids to be a part of the action.
Adult ministries at Wall Street include a variety of small groups, both seasonal and ongoing studies. Groups may be centered around talents (choir or hand bells), interests (Off the Wall Readers or Creation Keepers), or service (United Methodist Men and Women, the Center for Lay Ministries volunteers, or Loaves and Fishes). Each group provides an opportunity for you to find a place to belong and grow in relationship with God.
Wall Street UMC has been a proud partner of Troop 1 since 1911. Troop 1, led by Scoutmaster Steven Driver, meets at Wall Street UMC and provides members with hands on experiences.
