Students are Changing Students Lives for Christ!

By Local FP Communities, Student Leaders, FP Success Story

Here are some stories from clubs this past week where lives are being changed for Christ!

“I watched an 8th grade young lady, share her story, present the Romans road and 34 students walk across a gym floor to say ‘I want what she’s got’ Praise God!” FP North Alabama

What-we-believe“We had several students this morning that attended First Priority for the first time. We had a lot of First Priority students reaching out to bring in friends. We had more than 60 students in attendance today and we are so excited that 11 students prayed to receive Christ and five students responded that they would like more information about the Gospel! God is good!” FP Birmingham

“Students taught how to share the gospel and offered a chance to respond! 7 students responded and accepted Christ!” FP Blue Ridge

 

Proud Parent

Today, my middle son shared his faith at school with the help of his campus coach Michael. One new student accepted Christ! In two days, my two oldest sons have both reached a new person with the HOPE Christ through First Priority Blue Ridge. I am one proud board member, campus coach and of course dad!

The Thankfulness of a Student

By Local FP Communities, Student Leaders, FP Success Story

Thank you letter from a student to her FP Director: 

We are constantly thanking those who support First Priority financially and spiritually. This past week was engage week at my High School. We had the chance to welcome back a senior from last year that had been involved with the First Priority club here since 2015. With the lure of 6 pizzas we had over 30 people who came and heard the never-ending grace in his testimony.

I have been involved with First Priority since 2015 as well, and it was refreshing to not only hear how his testimony has changed and matured but also to see the number of students in our club grow. But more than that, our club has grown in connection, attention, maturity and conversation. This year, we have been able to hear people talk who have never shared before and have seen students come that we never thought would come to our club.

God is so good and works in ways we often don’t understand. ThankfulnessFirst Priority has been the spark in some students lives to help them be open and eager to further their knowledge in the Lord and they have come to know the Lord personally by joining a church. This year, we have seen things that this club was built on more than ever. Thank you so much to those who are praying for us and giving. Seeing students grow and come to know the Lord is not only a praise in their lives, but also has opened the eyes of our leaders and have helped them grow.  The Bible says in Isaiah 6:8, a verse used quite often but is so true, “Send Me”. As a high school student, it’s hard to grasp that completely when we are stuck in Florida. But, we tend to miss the point of that verse. Everywhere on the planet is a battlefield and my school is our mission field.

As students, we have the chance to do something adults can’t do, which is to reach other students from the inside. This school year we have seen so much growth in every area and we can’t wait to see what lies ahead.

Thank you,

How 1 Student Changed the Life of Another!

By Uncategorized, Local FP Communities, FP Success Story

It’s amazing to hear story after story of students lives being transformed. Here is a powerful one that we wanted to share.

Hannah is an 8th grader. Last year, Hannah learned to share the Romans Road. In August of this year, Susie came up to Hannah in PE class and asked “why are you different, like why are you weird?” Hannah told Susie her story and Susie responded “I want that”. Hannah shared the Romans Road and Susie accepted Jesus as her Lord and Savior. Fast forward to November and it is Engage week. Susie is a leader now and opens up club with prayer, Allyson shares her story and Hannah leads with (you guessed it) The Romans Road. When the invitation is given 41 students respond and are Saved by the Blood of the Lamb. What a picture of what First Priority is about, students on mission everyday, everywhere, even PE class. Praise God for what He is doing and has already done.

How First Priority changed Robin’s life and now she is impacting the lives of others!

By Local FP Communities, FP Success Story

Meet Robin. She was a student growing up in Birmingham, Alabama whose life was deeply impacted by the First Priority club in her school. Listen to her share how First Priority changed her life and supported her through some of the most difficult circumstances. She now is living out her faith story as she supports student leaders in her own children’s First Priority club. Great Story!
