At Manchaca United Methodist, we believe that children are an important part of the life of the church. We strive to include children in all aspects of ministry - worship, mission, education, stewardship, fellowship and outreach. It is our hope that every child know the love of God through Jesus and feel a sense of belonging to the body of Christ. Our goal is to equip children to seek God's Word, to share God's Love and to serve in God's Kingdom in order to make disciples for Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world. 

Whole Child Wellness Fair - September 29, 2012

Manchaca UMC is partnering with neighboring faith communities to offer the Whole Child Wellness Fair on September 29, 2012, from 10:00 am - 2:00 pm. Our goals are:

  • to educate families on important topics that impact children's physical, emotional and spiritual well-being,
  • to motivate participants to make healthy behavior choices, and
  • to connect children and families to the local and federal resources available to them.

We'll have interactive educational booths, health care enrollment, flu shots, and a free store with clothing, books and school supplies!
