Know & Go Student Ministry
The mission of FBR’s Student Ministry is to know Christ and make Him known. We understand that Matthew 28:19 tells us to make disciples, which includes developing those who know Him and bringing the lost to Him also. Our desire is to develop a ministry that is balanced in doing evangelism along with discipleship with our students and leadership.

Sunday Bible Study
In our classes we focus on transformational learning and present the truth in a way that is applicable, understandable and practical. The Morning Show is our Bible Study opener at 9:30 a.m. every Sunday morning in the Student Auditorium (C114). Announcements are given along with a time of praise and worship with our Student Band. Click here for a complete list of the Bible study classes available.

The Underground
The Underground is the greatest place for 7th-12th graders to hang out, make new friends, do homework and have fun. We believe God has provided this facility to minister to students in a safe, friendly environment. The Underground is equipped with video games, pool tables, foosball, air hockey, ping pong and a computer lab.

Student Band
Students in grades 10-12 audition in the fall for vocals and instrumentals for our student band. Practice is every Sunday afternoon.

Student Choir
No prior experience is necessary and any student who enjoys worshipping the Lord through music and song is invited to join student choir. We meet every Sunday from 5:00-6:00 p.m. in B101 during the school year. For more information about music programs, visit our music page or you can register here.

Together Sunday Nights
Together Sunday Nights meet every week on Sundays from 6:00-8:00 p.m. in host homes. This is a unique time for students to build friendships and have meaningful discussions about life and their faith. Everyone needs to be encouraged and loved and small groups is that place for our students to find it.

Pathway Puppets
The Pathway Puppets is a mission-focused coed group of students that present the gospel message in an entertaining and easy to understand way through the use of puppets. Once a year, the team seeks to find a smaller church to help them with their VBS by sharing Jesus through puppet programs. Auditions are held each year and mandatory practices are held weekly.

Huddle Groups
These groups are for students who come to the Underground from 6:00-6:35 p.m. on Wednesday nights. This time is designed for students to engage in discussions about life and faith. We strive for our students to lead this time, which provides them leadership opportunities in the student ministry.

Alive - Wednesday Night Worship
This service is for students who want to actively participate and take the next step of knowing and worshipping God. Relevant, energetic, encouraging time of worship and teaching through music, video and activities.

Leadership Teams
There are various teams within our student ministry that assist the Ministers through worship, drama, sound, tech, encouragement and ministry planning.

The 411
The 411 is our weekly rap sheet that keeps you up-to-date. Students can pick one up every Sunday during The Morning Show.

Student Camp
Student Camp is a week long camp at Windermere for students completing grades 7-12. The week is designed to challenge students in their walk with Christ through worship, preaching, and topic specific Bible Studies. Included is also a chance to have fun on the Lake of the Ozarks with water skiing, tubing and just having fun.

Student Camp 2010 will be July 25-29.
