W.O.W. (We're Open Wednesday!!)

In addition to a meal, each WOW night offers activities, classes and opportunities for all ages. Families can eat together, then family members can go on to join a study group, play a game or learn a new skill. Many of VUMC's own talented church members have volunteered to lead or facilitate the activities.

Some of the classes are designed to run weekly for the duration of the semester, while others are "drop in" -- you can attend one, a few, or all of them, starting at any time! Participants are welcome to engage in as much, or as little of each WOW night's activities as they desire.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: All WOW night activities are CANCELLED if Vicksburg Schools or after-school activities are closed that day due to inclement weather!
