    Summer Fun!

    We have officially rolled out our Summer Schedule for 2022, and I am so excited for what is in store! We have some great things planned, and we are looking forward to making so many memories together. Students should have received the schedule during Bible Study and parents should have received an email, but if you need an extra copy of the schedule, you can find them in the Rafters. You can also refer to our social media and the website for more details.

    Shred Truck Fundraiser

    We are hosting another Shred Truck Fundraiser on our campus on Saturday, May 7 from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. to help raise funds for our DC Mission Trip! This is the first one we have hosted since the pandemic, so if you have accrued extra documents that you would like to have safely and securely shredded (which I’m sure you have), come and see us! For every box that you need shredded, we are asking for a $5.00 per box donation. We hope to see you there, and as always, thank you for supporting our Student Ministry!

    Thank You!!!

    Wow…where do I even begin…Thank you, Church, for all of your support and prayers over the last couple of months in preparation, but especially over the last week as we enjoyed our annual DNOW Weekend! This weekend was one filled with lots of laughs, fun games, amazing worship, acts of service, genuine conversation, connections with new friends, opportunities to grow closer together, and an amazing display of the Gospel. All of this was made possible by you, Church. Whether you donated financially to sponsor a student, donated supplies, or prayed for a student, YOU partnered with God to make this weekend happen! I encourage you to talk with a student and ask them about the weekend, and what they experienced. Please continue to also pray for these students over the next couple of weeks. Seeds were planted this weekend that may take time to root. Pray that God will speak clearly to them, and that they will surrender to His will. We want to continue to see lives change for the Gospel!

    DNOW!

    We are so excited for our DNOW 2022 Weekend! This is one of my favorite events every year, and this year is shaping up to be one of the best yet! This year we are partnering with Remix Church and their students; Lenny Barber is returning as our speaker; and Katelynn Griffey is leading worship for us! Plus, our theme, “Stand,” is going to serve as a tool of preparation for our students to ready them for the trials they face every day in their schools and in life. Continue to pray for our students and leaders leading up to this event!

    Washington, D.C. Forms

    2021 Year in Review

    It always brings me joy to reflect on all that happened over the past year. 2021 started a lot like how 2020 ended: pretty bleak, not many answers with Covid, but people trying to stay optimistic. Encouragingly, our students pushed through and showed a resiliency that makes me so proud. Continuing with condensed, weekly Bible Studies (online and in person), slowly but surely, students started coming back. Because of Covid, we had to cancel many of our big events in late 2020 and early 2021, which was tough for our students. Once we were able, we decided to just do everything ALL AT ONE TIME! We threw together all our biggest events we normally do throughout the year and made this a summer to remember. From Summer Blast to our Minneapolis Mission Trip, DNOW, Mini Golf Night, and Chi Alpha Summers…we accomplished so much this summer. Our students were able to recapture a sense of normalcy many of us have been missing out on the last two years. Much of this would not have been possible without our amazing Summer Intern, Sarah Baker, who completed her final summer with us this year, since she will be graduating college this month. Her heart for the Lord and our students is amazing, and it has been a blessing to work alongside her these last three years.

    Looking forward to 2022, my prayer is we don’t forget what we have come from. These last two years have shaped many of us in ways we didn’t know was possible, and our students have learned tough lessons through it all, but I truly believe they have come out of this stronger. I can’t wait to see how God uses our Student Ministry in the coming year and what is in store for our students! We are planning some great things, and I know God will provide! Thank you for supporting our Student Ministry at Fee Fee!
