Sports Ministries are a great way to get to know the people of AUMC while enjoying your favorite games! At AUMC sports ministries include:

Softball

Softball is men, slow-pitch, and recreational. We play in a league here in Altoona. Our games are on Friday nights at Lion's Park.  The AUMC team has been together for several years and has reached several new members that are now attending our church.  You can contact Matt Millard, This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Basketball

Basketball is recreational, played in our Family Life Center on Monday nights starting at 6:30PM - 8:00PM.  We will typically just play pickup games with teams of 5.  If we have more than 10 players show up we will rotate players in to make sure everyone gets a chance to play.  The season starts in the first week of October through March with a few breaks when the FLC is in use.  Please contact Eric Carr for more information at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Christian Yoga

The Christian yoga class continues on Wednesday nights at 6:30PM.  Yoga is beneficial because it can improve your flexibility, endurance, strength, and balance. In addition to the many physical benefits of practicing yoga, it can help reduce stress, promote relaxation, improve your mood, and increase your overall well-being.  Anyone can practice yoga! As with any type of exercise, you will find that some movements or postures are easy for you, and others will be more difficult. Throughout the class, you can try beginner, intermediate and advanced levels of all the movements and poses.  Join us on Wednesday nights!
