Intro to Student Ministry
Fellowship Student Ministry creates an environment where students are known and loved

7th-12th graders are invited to join our primary FSM gathering Wednesday nights from 6:30-8:30PM.

FSM at the Brentwood and Franklin campuses typically includes a large group, worship, biblical teaching, breakout time in small groups, and relational games


FSM Calendar

Throughout the Fall and Spring semesters, we host weekly gatherings at the Brentwood and Franklin campuses. We also gather for special events such as monthly on/off-campus “Big
Wednesdays”, weekend camps and retreats, and other fun outings.

*Please note, during the summer (Middle of May–Beginning of August) we still gather, but on a semi-regular basis, due to our global mission trips. Summer events will be kept up to date on
our all-church calendar here.

Good To Know:
  • On-Campus Big Wednesdays, where all 7th-12th grade students meet in the Worship Center together. These happen every other month, typically on the last Wednesday of the month
  • Off-Campus Big Wednesdays, where individual 242 groups will get together off-campus for a night of fellowship and connecting with their group. These happen every other month, typically on the last Wednesday of the month.
  • Camps and retreats where students and leaders will spend a weekend at a retreat center for games, worship, teaching, and intentional small group time.

242 Groups

242 Groups

They devoted themselves to the apostles teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Acts 2:42

Our 242 Groups are our small group component of our student ministry. They provide a life-on-life context in which our adult volunteer leaders invest in the lives of students. A typical 242 Group is 10-15 students at Brentwood and 5-12 at Franklin of the same grade and gender, and includes a chance for students to share about their week, discuss the large group teaching, and enjoy fun times together.
