WELCOME PARENTS!!
We view Student Ministry at Faith Covenant as a partnership with parents to raise God-centered, Christ-following children whose identity is bound up in an authentic, growing relationship with Jesus Christ. We strive to surround our teens with a community of loving, caring adults who feel called to help model for our teens a life of faith and spiritual growth and speak truth into their lives.
We don’t have all the answers — duh! But we do feel a special call to nurture students and are committed to being the best
resource we can for helping our teens and their parents navigate all the complexities of growing up in the 21st century. This page is designed to be a growing collection of parenting resources for you and your teen. Enjoy!
