So this Fall & Winter there is a lot of good stuff going on. I thought I’d summarize below what’s happening and you can click around to read more details. We’ve got opportunities for you to connect, grow, and serve as you feel God has called you. Hopefully you’ll find something to engage with that will be helpful to you in your spiritual growth and help you connect with others just to plain old have a good time. Take a look around and let me know if there is anything I can do for you.
Thank you, Eric Ferrell

A guided discussion/Q&A around what “college life” is really like. There will be a panel of current & former students who attend or have attended anywhere from a major university to a community college, local university, or a christian college. They, along with a panel of parents of college students, will be addressing very common questions & concerns centered around this phase of life and the struggles that go along with that. See below for sample questions.
- What is dorm life really like?
- Why do they make me live in the dorms my first year?
- How are academics different…really?
- How much should I be expect my faith to be challenged by professors & other students?
- What should I expect when I first get to campus?
- How do I meet new people?
- When should I have my major figured out by?

- How do I get connected to a church?
- What are campus ministries like?
- What are the challenges of working while going to school?
- What are the challenges of staying home and going to school?
- What factors did you use to select your school?
- What are the pros & cons to a Christian school?
- What type of pressures will be put on me as a Christian to party?
- What are the benefits & downfalls of being a part of “greek life”?
- How difficult is it for you as a parent to let your children go?
- What are your biggest concerns as a parent when your children leave for school?

Just a reminder that we are playing volleyball throughout the summer on Sunday nights on the front lawn at FLC. We play starting at 5pm, wrap up just before Watershed at 7pm, then usually play again after our bible study together. Hope to see you out there!
I’ve recently finished putting together the finishing touches on our upcoming spring & summer schedule for the college-age ministry. If I do say so myself, it’s awesome. Everything from our two different bible studies a week…to “welcome home” & “easter “parties…to ultimate frisbee…to new orleans…to white water rafting…to kayaking…to homeless bbq’s…to volleyball and the list goes on and on. I can’t tell you how excited I am for this spring & summer! I pray that this ministry will be a blessing to your life this spring & summer. I hope that you not only have some fun, but also that you learn more about our God through connecting, growing, & serving. All events/trips/studies…etc are open to you and all your friends. Take a look around and let me know if you have any questions or comments.
