Youth Ministry
fu·sion
[ˈfyo͞oZHən]
NOUN
1. the process or result of joining two or more things together to form a single entity
fusion student ministry is designed to create an atmosphere for students to collide with the living Jesus. We want to connect students with each other in such a meaningful way that it changes the quality of their lives. We believe that when students hangout, serve and grow in faith together, it will foster discipleship.
Our goal: Life-long Disciples
Our strategy:
Meet students where they are:
We want to enter the student’s world attend their games, their concerts and their events.
We want to build solid relationships:
We value relational ministry. Our hope is to connect every student in a small group led by adults who are passionate about Jesus and seeing students come alive in their faith.
We believe we earn the right to share our faith:
When we enter into a student’s world and build solid relationships, we will earn the right to share what God has done in our lives.
This is one of the most exciting phases of life but a student’s world can also be cluttered with ever growing responsibilities, complicated relationships and heavy obligations. Our desire is to create space to exhale, find healing, put into practice what they are learning and have some fun. We hope you will check us out, we look forward to meeting you.
