College Ministry

Taking Jesus to our campus and world, one light at a time.

College Ministry at First St. Paul’s serves as a resource and support to members and friends as they continue their faith journey during the college years. We strive to walk with students as they grow in faith, discern their path and develop their gifts and service. At First St. Paul’s we believe each young adult is an arrow in God’s hand. “Grip, draw, anchor, aim, release.” And that’s what we want to help you do.

Opportunities for College Students

Passion Conference exists to equip and encourage a generation to leverage their influence for the name and fame of Jesus. Each year, First St. Paul’s offers Passion Conference as an opportunity for seniors in high school and college students to steal away to Atlanta for a week of learning, growing and transformation. We’re heading back to Passion in 2026. (December 28, 2026 – January 1, 2027). Limited tickets available and are available for anyone ages 18 – 25. Cost is coming soon. Contact Pastor Chad to learn more.

Immersion is a mission program offered through Experience Mission. Immersion provides a variety of short and long term mission opportunities for college students. To learn more about immersion, visit Experience Mission. To seek advice, prayer and information about pursuing immersion, contact Pastor Chad Power.

Foundations

A new opportunity for college-age young adults and those in their 20s to come together, share a meal, build genuine friendships, ask meaningful questions, and grow deeper in faith.

What are you building your life on? College. Careers. Relationships. Independence. New opportunities. New questions. This season of life can be exciting, but it can also leave us wondering where we belong, what really matters, and what will hold us steady when life gets complicated. That’s where Foundations comes in.

Because faith isn’t meant to be lived alone. We need people to walk beside us, stories to share, questions to explore, and a foundation that remains steady through every season.

If you’re college-age or in your 20s, you are invited. Come as you are, bring a friend, and find a place to connect, belong, and grow.
