We know students need a place to belong, a place to encounter new ideas, and space to wrestle with what it means to follow God in their own personal lives. Everything we offer is designed to help junior high and high schoolers begin to take ownership of their faith.
At our events students will play crazy games, worship through music, participate in small groups with other students and hear messages from our student pastor. We desire to see students embracing faith in their own life and we see it as our goal to guide them on this journey. The teenage years are a critical time and students face more today than ever before. Cultural pressures are pushing and pulling them in a million different directions. At First Students, we strive to create experiences where students can learn and grow as followers of Jesus Christ.
Here’s the bottom line: we are passionate about showing students they have a Heavenly Father who longs to know them & experience life with them in a personal way.
