The road map for the College ministry shares a vision that hopes to see all local college students transformed by the power of Jesus Christ and His Gospel, reaching the world for the glory of God.
This includes multiple gatherings for college-aged students along with mission projects to cultivate discipleship, fellowship, and worship through faith relationships together.
