"Student Sunday”
WELCOME! Our heartbeat is to Connect to Christ, Grow with Others, and Engage the World together as Family. We gather to be disciples totally committed to Christ, becoming like Him in supreme love for God, selfless love for others, and sacrificial love for the world as we go locally, regionally, and globally. We hope you participate today with an expectation to encounter the Lord and a desire to celebrate the wonder of Jesus. It’s all about Him!

News & Information
In addition to the next steps given that are part of each opportunity, you can also stop by the Welcome Center or contact the FACT Office.
Summer means different schedules, longer daytime hours, and (maybe) more free time, but it doesn’t mean you stop growing as a biblical, loving, spirit-filled disciple.
Connect to Christ through personal, spiritual disciplines and consistent Sunday morning participation in worship, either in person or online.
Grow with Others by exercising intentional hospitality this month with food, prayer, and talking about who Jesus is to you.
Engage the World by delving deeper into why missions matter and what role you’re meant to play in the Great Commission. In just three minutes a day for four days, explore how you can engage in missions with The Alliance. Go to https://cmalliance.org/allofjesus/missions-engagement-2025-ecourse-form/ to start the free course.
What’s your next step this summer?

Mark your calendars now for an evening of ‘Back to School Prayer & Pie’ as we gather to pray for our faculty, staff, and students, Wednesday, July 23, at 6:30 pm. Bring a pie to share and stay for pie and fellowship after prayer.
The Well Toccoa will facilitate a Worship Prayer Night for FACT on Thursday, July 24, at 7 pm. It will be a special evening of worship-based prayer, including time for reflecting on God’s goodness over the past ministry year and leaning in with anticipation to receiving what God has in store for the next ministry year at FACT.
FACT Youth will have a cookout and water games on Wednesday, July 30. More details to come soon.
Everyone working with kids under the age of 18 must complete Risk Management Training each year. Your Risk Management Training must be completed before you begin your ministry. If you work with kids in the nursery, Kingdom Kids, AWANA, youth group, security, or the upcoming soccer camp, you will need to complete risk management training. Now is the perfect time to complete your Risk Management Training for the fall. Those that complete it now will be qualified to serve in summer ministries but also be ready to serve for all of the next church year starting in July. Just go to https://factoccoa.com/risk to begin!

Monthly Prayer Focus
Give Thanks In Expectation
As we conclude one ministry year and get ready to start a new one, give thanks for how the Lord has been with us during the 2024-2025 ministry year – for how He has been at work among us, for new FACT family relationships, and for spiritual growth both individually and together. Praise Him for His faithful presence and provision as Savior, Sanctifier, Healer, and Coming King. As we look toward the 2025-2026 ministry year, begin by quieting your heart and inviting the Spirit to speak to us as His sacred people. Are you open to what He wants to do in and through us as biblical, loving, Spirit-filled disciples in our community, region, and world in response to His sacred calling? How does He want to challenge us for Gospel growth in this sacred time? Will we live with a ready expectation as we continue to connect, grow, and engage together seeking where God is at work and joining Him there in the sacred power of the Spirit?
