FCC Youth
FCC Youth is a community for youth grades 6–12 to learn about and experience the love of God. Our goal is to be a welcoming and supportive community where students can build relationships with one another and be challenged in how they think about God, themselves, and the world around them as they learn to follow Jesus.

Current Series: Water of Life
Faith isn’t always simple, comfortable, or easy to understand. Sometimes we find ourselves in deep waters—facing questions, uncertainty, suffering, doubt, and moments when we don’t know what comes next. Other times, it can feel like we’re walking through a drought, searching for something that will satisfy.
This year, we’re diving deeper into faith and making space for the things we don’t always talk about. We’ll explore what Scripture says, share our experiences, ask honest questions, and discover what it looks like to trust God and tap into the Water of Life—even when the waters get deep or when it feels like we’re in a drought. Come ready to go deeper!
Join us Sundays @10am & Thursdays @6pm in the youth room.
Living Water
7 day Reading Plan
This month, explore what it means to see Jesus as “living water,” looking at six stories from the Gospel of John. We’ll see how God invites us to be part of His thirst-quenching endeavor, sharing the gift of water with those in need, both physically and spiritually. Take your time and go through this reading plan and meditate on it through out the week.
