About My Ministry

First Priority provides a strategy for local churches to work together to empower their students as evangelists to their schools. Once local churches agree to reach a campus, First Priority serves them to provide a strategy and to mentor them in their outreach to the schools.

Churches send student leaders as campus missionaries, provide adult mentors (campus coaches) to mentor the student leaders and empower parents and churches to see their schools as a mission field and to support their students as missionaries to their schools. Students from multiple churches work together to create and lead a campus club at their middle and high schools.

First Priority’s Vision: The Hope of Christ in Every Student

Our Mission: To unite the Church with a plan of action to influence schools with the gospel

Pray

Pray for our student leaders who are serving as missionaries to their schools. Pray for boldness, discernment and opportunities to share the gospel.
Pray for our campus coaches, who are adults who are mentoring student leaders.
Pray students will be open to hearing and responding to the gospel.
Pray for unity of the body of Christ—churches working together to reach a generation with the gospel.

Participate

Prayer Warriors: Pray for the ministry.
Ministry Partners: Financially support the ministry.
Ministry Ambassador: Cast vision and encourage others to join in reaching the schools.
Many missionaries build a team to join their ministry in prayer, participation, and provision. These friends, family and churches support missionaries beyond the tithes and offerings given within the church plant.
