Join us as we lift up our ³Ô¹ÏÍø community together. Parents in Prayer is an opportunity for ³Ô¹ÏÍø families to cover our students, faculty, and staff in prayer each month.
Through monthly prayer prompts shared on our social media, you can:
- Find encouragement and support as you pray alongside other ³Ô¹ÏÍø parents
- Stay connected, whether you’re here on campus or joining us online from home
- Experience the peace that comes from knowing your student is surrounded by prayer
Together, we can make a meaningful impact through faith and fellowship. Be watching for this month’s prayer focus on our Facebook page!
³Ô¹ÏÍø Summer Launch Parties
Each summer, we kick off the new school year by gathering ³Ô¹ÏÍø families for our ³Ô¹ÏÍø Summer Launch Parties. These special events are designed to welcome incoming students, connect parents, and celebrate the start of an exciting journey at ³Ô¹ÏÍø.
Currently, our team hosts these gatherings, but as our ³Ô¹ÏÍø Parent community grows, we look forward to seeing families step in to host events in their own homes, churches, or local spaces.
Whether you’re a new family or a returning one, we invite you to join us to build relationships, ask questions, and share in the excitement of the ³Ô¹ÏÍø experience.
More details about this year’s Launch Parties will be coming soon—we hope to see you there!
