UPCOMING EVENTS
Student Ministry Events
Check out some of our youth events for the rest of the year!

Girls' Camp In
Our Annual Girls' Camp In is always a blast! A time to fellowship together, get in the Word and just have a good time together. Dinner Friday and breakfast Saturday are provided. We have plenty of air mattresses - the girls just need to bring their pillow and either twin sheets or a sleeping bag. Contact Keri with any questions or if you need more info.

OCC Mission Project
We have another great opportunity to participate in Operation Christmas Child to share God's love with kids around the world! In preparation for our upcoming 11/8 youth group Packing Party, we are collecting donated items & money for shipping. All donations can be dropped off in the student cafe.

Bonfire & Hayride
Note the new date for our youth Bonfire on Sunday, November 15th from 5-8pm. Food, drinks, and s'mores will be provided. There also will be a hayride after the sun goes down. Invite a friend and we look forward to seeing you there!

Serving Opportunities
There are several opportunities to serve within First Students! If you feel led to use the giftings that the Lord has given you, feel free to sign up and reach out to Pastor Brian or Keri.

Mission Trips
Feel like God is leading you towards a mission trip but the cost of it can be intimidating? We got you covered! Every Sunday after small groups, you have the opportunity to serve coffee for mission's money to help the cost of a trip you may be looking at. Every dollar given goes towards student missions. Any questions, feel free to reach out to Pastor Brian or Keri.
