Welcome to Student Ministry!

 
 

We value the spiritual formation of students grades 6th-12th and have a desire to come alongside families in the discipleship of their students. FPCO Student Ministry welcomes all students to grow in their relationship with God and each other. Our greatest desire is for students to know that they are deeply known and loved by God and to provide a space where they belong.

On the first Sunday of each month, students are encouraged to join the larger church body for a time of Fellowship under the Angel Wing.

Grow Groups

Middle and High School Students:

You are invited to join a Grow Group!

Grow Groups are hands-on, discipleship-driven communities where your student will spend time weekly investing in one another’s lives. Groups are a place to be known and loved, and to live out our calling of radical affection and accountability through life-on-life discipleship. They are communities of believers, studying the Word, teaching spiritual practices, and investing time in prayer and accountability together. Students will meet in groups with their gender and grade level.

Peak

High School

Peak is designed for High School students to connect with their peers and leaders, engage in teaching, and worship together.

Wednesdays 7:30-9:00PM

For more information, please contact our Student Ministry Director, Andy Ward.

Confirmation

Confirmation is the process by which students become covenant partners in the life and ministry of First Presbyterian Church of Orlando. We offer a six-week series of classes to students in 4th - 12th grades beginning each January to equip the next generation for Christ and His kingdom. Confirmation season begins in early January and culminates before Easter.

For more information, please contact our Student Ministry Director, Andy Ward or our Middle School Assistant Director, Alex Boynton.
