Agape House
Every Wednesday at 5:30 pm
DeUMC Sanctuary and outdoors
Agape House is a group of children, youth and adults that meets every Wednesday evening for fun, food, fellowship, and Christian education. The evening begins with games and recreation – outside when weather permits – then everyone comes inside for food, music and worship. The youth attend classes that are divided by ages. Rides in and around town are provided at the end of Agape House. Just come join in on any Wednesday evening.
