We are here to help you! You have the most important job that no pastor, mentor, or friend could ever replace in your child’s life! The teenage years are crazy hard and we want you to know that we have your back! Here are our some resources and helpful links to use as we come alongside and help you point your student towards Jesus.
The first week of every month we email out the Parent Update. A quick resource of articles to help you point your students towards Jesus. We also send out weekly emails with helpful information so you are in the know of everything that is happening with First Baptist Students
Occasionally we send out text updates and reminders with information about the student ministry and events. If you would like to sign up to receive these, click the link below.
