SPLAT
(Seeking, Praising, Learning, Asking, Teaching)

SPLAT is our CUMC youth group (grades 7-12) growing in faith together through seeking, praising, learning, asking and teaching. We meet on Sundays from 11:30 - 1 p.m. SPLAT is for youth in the church and in the community – come join us!

Youth combine fun activities and social time, spiritual formation, Bible study (reading scripture and relating it to  daily lives and concerns), mission opportunities, and encounters with God in the community. Through participation and study youth also prepare for confirmation (generally in their 9th grade year) if desired. SPLAT is an open and honest time of discovery, exploration and learning. 

SPLAT meets on Sunday mornings from 8:30-11:30 am for Brew Crew, a Christian-based youth coffee shop serving the congregation homemade treats and fair trade coffee. Youth have fun together while gaining valuable work experience and earning funds to go on mission trips. Brew Crew was started by some of our youth, who learned about the importance of fair trade and wanted to bring it home to Coralville UMC and our members.

Don’t let anyone put you down because you’re young, but teach believers with your life: by word, by demeanor, by love, by faith, and by integrity. –1 Timothy 4:12

What's New

Sunday, May 25, will be the last Sunday of regular Kids.Connect classroom time. But never fear!  Teachers and leaders are planning some summer fun!


This summer Pastor Rachel will host a summer book club instead of a regular Bible Study. Because summer schedules are full and often unpredictable, instead of meeting weekly, we will read the book in your own time (maybe at the beach or the cabin) and then meet once a month to discuss the book. Pastor Rachel will share some reflections about the readings for the weekly newsletter. Keep reading to view the selections.
