The Central Stress-Free Zone is a curated space at Central UMC for students of the Atlanta area to experience loving community and spiritual friendship before going into the end of the school year. Finals can be one of the most stressful times of the year for students and what better way to support youth and young adults than to have a safe space available for them to find release of stress and experience joy with their extended church family.

Volunteers are needed to help with food and putting together food packages.

Contact Min. Tavis Tinsley to volunteer or for additional information.
