First Students

You belong here at FBC Siloam Springs!


LEading Students to know and follow JEsus

Whoever you are, everyone is welcome at First Students! First Students gives 7th-12th grade students the opportunity to get connected with a group of people their own age who are growing closer to the Lord each day. We want to see students know and follow Jesus Christ! First Students is a place for teenagers to deepen their relationship with Christ while simultaneously growing their relationships with others!

Bible Study

Sundays from 9:30 -10:30 AM every week!

 Our Sunday morning Bible study is one of the best opportunities for us to dig deep into God's word as a group. We go through Bible passages verse by verse, discussing how the content can apply to our own lives. We are currently studying the Gospel of Mark.

Midweek

Every Wednesday from 6 to 8 PM!

Midweek is always exciting! We play lots of fun games, eat food, worship, and look at some Scripture together. After the message, we  split up into small groups  to discuss the message and pray with each other!

No Midweek Tonight 2-12
All Wednesday evening programming at FBC Siloam tonight is cancelled, due to winter weather conditions. We will resume as normal next week.

Sunday Morning Small Groups 2-16
This week we’ll be discussing how the Lord created a way for His people to be forgiven. Whether it’s a birthday, a holiday, or a unique day that has meaning to us and those around us, we all can appreciate special occasions. These days are unlike the rest, and we find ourselves looking forward to them. The memories created on these days linger in our minds long after the day has passed. This week, we will learn about the Day of Atonement. For the Israelites, this was the day on which they practiced their most important annual activity. It was truly a special occasion. As we read and discuss this week’s passage, we will be reminded that God created a way for His people to be forgiven and reconciled with Him.

Please take some time to read our Scriptures for this Sunday:
Leviticus 16:1-10, 29-30

Next Steps . . .
Here’s a few questions to help as you discuss this lesson with your student:
-What was the purpose of the two goats in verses 8-10?
-What is confession? What is the Lord’s response to honest confession, according to 1 John 1:9?
-Do you live as though you have direct access to God because of Jesus’s sacrifice? Why or why not?

Thank you for all you do. As a parent, you are the primary spiritual influence in the life of your teenager, and they desperately need you. I’m praying for you! If you have any questions or if I can help with anything, please don't hesitate to let me know!
