FPC’s Youth Ministry relies heavily on email to communicate weekly events. Letters, calendars, and other information is also mailed to homes. To be added to our email and mailing lists, please click here.
To update your student’s information and/or to add them to our text list, please email Jessica Kirklin.
Middle School meets every Sunday from 6–7:30 PM in the Youth House for a meal, fellowship, and small group discussion.
Divided by grade and gender, High School meets weekly on Wednesday nights to share a meal and study God’s word. Small groups meet in various homes throughout the city, so please contact Jessica Kirklin for specific information.
Both Middle and High School students take multiple summer trips each year. We also have a Spring and Fall retreat. These are great opportunities to hang with others and grow closer to God.

Need Assistance?
Sometimes life throws us a curveball and we need a little extra guidance. This can be especially true during the “teen parenting” phase of life. If you are in need of a licensed counselor or another professional resource, or if you just need a listening ear or a praying friend, please contact Jon Crantz. We hope it goes without saying that all inquiries are treated with confidentiality. We want to help where we can!
