FBCC Students exists not to just point them in the right direction, but teach them to trust God in their daily lives, their decisions, and how they approach a life where the values and lessons of the Bible can be at odds with the world around them.
who is it for?
The FBCC Student Ministry welcomes everyone from 6th through 12th grade, and while we unashamedly teach the Gospel and truth of our Lord, we are able to create an environment where everyone belongs. Its truly a time for students to build relationships with others like them and with the Lord. With students regularly bringing friends, our community is truly reached through their lives.
What do they do?
Our students participate in Bible studies, Small groups, Games, and of course food and fellowship which happens every week. Along with these weekly activities, students have the opportunity to participate in mission trips both close to home and across the country which helps students to be on mission! And every year we go to IBSA Super Summer and a variety of other events and activities.
Many of our students are also active in First Priority at their schools as well, being an overt and active member reaching their schools for Christ. Those that are musically inclined or love the tech side of things, are given the opportunity to serve on the “Worship Mob”, which is the student worship team, and they lead worship on Wednesday Nights and the occasional Sunday Morning.
Where and when is it held?
SUNDAYS:
9am - Small Group Bible Study
6pm - Large Group Worship Service
WEDNESDAYS:

* These services happen in the Student Ministry Center across from the Church.
