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
