College

Welcome to College Ministries at First Presbyterian Church, Fresno! We are proud to partner with the CCO (Coalition for Christian Outreach) in transforming college students to transform the world. FPC hopes to create a space for college-aged students and young professionals (18-24)  who are looking to connect with others in similar stages of life. 

Through Sunday morning gatherings, weekly Bible studies, and monthly meals with families in the church, we have places that students and young professionals can feel a sense of personal belonging, rich connection, and deeper understanding of the Gospel.

If you're a student interested in connecting with us, click here to let us know and we'll tell you about upcoming events and opportunities for fellowship!

 

Jubilee Sponsorship

Are you interested in sponsoring a student attending Jubilee 2024?

It is our goal to provide each attendee with a $200 scholarship to aid their cost to the conference. All sponsors will be invited to attend a special Jubilee Recap Dinner Saturday, March 2nd at 6 pm. As a sponsor, you will have an opportunity to have dinner with students, hear stories from their reflections and enjoy a delicious meal.

History of FPC and Jubilee


Since February 2016, our commitment to sending students to Jubilee has grown significantly. Initially, we began with three elders and three students. However, through a valuable partnership with the CCO, we now proudly send over 30 students accompanied by dedicated staff members and adult volunteers. This expansion is a testament to the unwavering support and generosity of individuals like you who believe in investing in the next generation. We extend our heartfelt gratitude for your consistent support, making this collaboration possible.

CCO Partnership

Believing that tomorrow's local, national, and world leaders are at the college and university of today, FPC is excited to be in a partnership with the college campus ministry organization, CCO. The CCO calls college students to serve Jesus Christ with their entire lives.

As a college campus ministry they are distinct in three ways:

  1. They develop students to be passionate leaders who serve Jesus Christ in their studies, jobs, communities, and families.
  2. They serve together with the church, inviting students into the lives of local congregations.
  3. They design each ministry to fit the needs of every campus they serve.

The CCO's CORE VALUES are: 

  • All things belong to God.
  • Jesus changes people's lives.
  • We love college students.
  • We embrace God's multiethnic Kingdom
  • Faithfulness is pursued together.
  • We celebrate life.
