The Underground is our youth center and home to the youth ministry program of First United Presbyterian Church in Winterset.
The UG is open immediately after school Mondays-Fridays until 5:30 p.m for youth 3rd grade and up. The after school program is free and sometimes even fun. :)
There are 3 main youth groups that meet:
WAC (Wednesday After-School Club) meets weekly On Wednesdays from 4-5. Any kids in the UG at that time joins in. We learn a different Bible story each week, discuss it and pray as a group. From 5:30-6:00 on Wednesdays we have a $2 dinner for the youth. Usually it's kid-friendly food like tacos, pizza, pasta or sloppy joes.
JUG (Junior Underground) is for 6-8 grade youth and meets Wednesdays from 6ish-7ish
TUG (Teen Underground) is for high school youth and meets Sundays from 6:30-8:00 p.m. This year we're reading through the book "Story" by Steven James-- the goal is to see the entirety of God's story told in the Bible.
Special Events We do a 5th Quarter after each home varsity basketball game. On those nights, the UG is open for junior high and high school youth from 9 until midnight. We provide Koolaid and snacks. They provide energy and fun.
There are also two high school lock-ins each year, one junior high overnight, a 30 Hour Famine and more. Keep checking back for further updates.
Support The Underground has 2 fundraisers each year: A Dinner on the Saturday of the Covered Bridge Festival and a Chili Cook-Off during the winter. Other donations of snacks, money or games are cheerfully accepted, but not required. We really appreciate your prayers.
