Jamestown (CSi) First United Methodist Church in Jamestown hosts a Wednesday after school program of Jamestown Middle School students.

 

On Tuesday’s (Feb 18, 2014) Wayne Byers Show on CSi cable 2, church spokesperson Jeanne Sortland said, church officials saw middle school youth hanging out on the steps of the library next to the church when school lets out.

 

So, they decided on Wednesday to have a safe, fun, adult supervised place for youth to go on Wednesdays.

 

All middle school youth in grades 6-8 are welcome, with no charge to participate.

 

The program runs from 3-p.m., to 5-p.m., and includes activities and adult supervision of:

 

Snack Time, Devotion Time, Game/Activity Time and Homework Time. During Topic Time, students are encouraged to discuss events relevant to their lives. The afternoon concludes with homework, or reading time.

 

Students are expected to be respectful, responsible safe, and hospitable.

 

Youth are welcome to come in and check out the program for a week or two, and then if they decide to attend regularly, parents fill out a permission slip and provide contact information.
