College Summer Program
Each summer, we have a College Summer Program that includes faith formations on Sunday mornings, fellowship events, and missions projects.Check out our summer calendar below -- YOU are invited!
Churchwide Social
Middle schoolers, high schoolers, college students, and adults of all ages are invited to participate in a Churchwide Social following worship on Sunday, July 17.
The Churchwide Social will provide an opportunity for our younger generation and adults of all ages to engage in conversation with one another beyond formalities. These deeper conversations help us to grow in faith, break down stereotypes and barriers, and give new meaning to “faith family.” We will begin with a brief training for each group, gather together for lunch, followed by intentional games and speed round mixing, closing with dessert. Let's strengthen our churchwide connection!Please RSVP by July 13 so we can plan accordingly.
SIGN UP
Faith Formations
Throughout the summer, the College Class will meet for Faith Formations on Sundays at 9:15am in the College Lounge (across from the Activity Center Parlor) for a 10 week study on “Lessons from Jesus’ Table.” Our lesson will begin promptly at 9:30am.Jesus often used meals to engage with people and teach important lessons. His ministry at the table provides opportunities for us to invite friends, outcasts, and even enemies to know God’s story of love through breaking bread together. Join us for discussion surrounding these lessons on Sunday mornings!
Community Coffee
Let’s gather bi-weekly for community coffee! This will be an intentional time to build community -- we’ll meet at a local coffee shop and share about our week, play games, and connect with one another!Missions
Fellowship
Parent Resources
While our Summer Program is geared for College-aged Students, they aren’t the only one entering new territory Parents are also learning and growing alongside their young adult children as things begin to shift within the family system. Here are a few resources we hope you’ll find helpful during this time. We will continue to update them throughout the year so be sure to check back in!Preparing to Launch
Find the Guide Here
Fuller Youth Institute has developed a resource to help families like yours have better conversations in the “launching” phase between adolescence and young adulthood.Parents are often longing for better ways to talk about faith with their kids and to have deeper emotional connection with them. They just struggle to know how, or to reach out in ways that their kids might actually respond. As a response, they have created a 10-session guide that can be used individually, with a spouse or friend, or in a small group or class setting.
