Power UP!
An easy and fun way to serve the Lord is to become a children's greeter for Power UP! Sunday School. This easy job only requires a smile and a cheery personality.

Thank you to all those who have already expressed interest in helping in Children's ministry.
Please give Beth Johnson, Children’s Minister, a call at 281-852-0967 or email Beth@aumc.org if you are interested in helping in any children's ministry area.
