facYOUTH - LIFE 2025 Fundraiser
This summer, our facYOUTH students are heading to the Alliance Youth LIFE Conference 2025 in Indianapolis, IN—and we couldn’t be more excited! LIFE is an incredible experience filled with powerful worship, dynamic speakers, and life-changing moments. We truly believe this trip will be a crucial part of God’s work in shaping our students’ faith for years to come.
We want to invite you to be part of their journey! Through your prayers and generosity, you can help send our youth to LIFE 2025. There are two ways you can give:
1. Grab an envelope from the Youth display in the church lobby—simply pick an envelope with a number and give that amount.
2. Give online through PushPay by selecting "LIFE Youth Fundraiser" under the giving options or click the button below.
As our students prepare for this conference, we are also encouraging them to serve faithfully within the life of the church. It’s a beautiful picture of how the church invests in the next generation—and how the next generation steps up to serve the church!
Your support not only helps them attend this powerful event—it helps them grow as faithful, active members of our church community.
Thank you for being a church that believes in the next generation. Let’s send them with our prayers, encouragement, and support!
Prayer for children at risk
Remember Nhu is a ministry committed to ending child sex slavery through prevention, which is the most effective way to keep children safe and end this evil practice. Individuals and families at FAC sponsor girls and boys in Kenya, Thailand, Myanmar, Laos, and Tanzania.
You can join us in becoming a difference maker by contacting Cindy Shuffield at cshuffield@facerie.org.
You can learn more about Remember Nhu by picking up a copy of our “Prayer Guide for World Missions” at the Missions Table, near the entrance of the Worship Center.
