First Students

Bags packed. Hearts changed. Missions accepted.

The last night of camp always hits different. The games are over, the canteen is closed, and the packing up has begun—but tonight, no one was thinking about the morning. Instead, this is where we found our Senior Higher's: outside in the dark, under the stars, leaning into a circle of prayer.

If you want to know what God did this week, there's no need to look beyond this right here.

Prayer Request: As they make the drive home in the morning, please pray for their transitions. Pray that the decisions made around this circle stick, that the fires lit this week keep burning bright, and that they bring the kingdom of God back into their schools, families, and friend groups.

CYOKAMO Day 1-3 Recap: The Adventure Project is UNDERWAY!

The bags are long unpacked, the cell phones are safely tucked away in the lockbox, and our Senior Highers have officially dove headfirst into summer at Camp CYOKAMO!

Prayer Request: As we roll on by the halfway mark, please pray for soft hearts, breaking down walls, and that our students continue to respond with boldness to whatever God has ahead for them this week!

🚨HEY HIGH SCHOOLERS: DO NOT MISS THE BUS!🚨

HS Camp CYOKAMO is officially here and the countdown is down to the final few hours!

If you are headed to camp today, here is your non-negotiable timeline:
⏰ 12:30 PM SHARP: You need in the Student Center, bags packed if you didn't drop them yesterday, and checked in.
🚌 1:00 PM: The wheels are rolling. If you're late, you're chasing the bus to Missouri. ✌️

Double-check your packing list, grab some lunch before you get here, and let's get ready for the best week of the summer!

See you at 12:30!

Hurray for Grad Sunday!

Tomorrow morning, at the beginning of each of our 3 main services, our church has the honor of praying over and celebrating our 2026 Seniors. We’ve seen these students grow, lead, and follow Jesus—now it’s time to send them out into the world as disciples and arrows to make an impact for His kingdom. We believe God has massive things in store for these graduates!

To our Class of 2026: As you step into this next chapter, our prayer for you is rooted in 1 Timothy 4:12. Never let your age make you feel small or stop you from leading. Ground yourself in integrity, lead with love every day, and show the world what is possible when you boldly live out your faith.

JH/SH: The seniors are graduating, but the rhythm continues for the rest of us. Grab your drinks and donuts from the cafe and meet us in the First Students area at 9:45AM.

LAST CALL FOR SENIOR HIGH CAMP!
