College
Welcome to College Ministries at First Presbyterian Church, Fresno! We are proud to partner with the CCO (Coalition for Christian Outreach) in transforming college students to transform the world. FPC hopes to create a space for college-aged students and young professionals (18-24) who are looking to connect with others in similar stages of life.
Through Sunday morning gatherings, weekly Bible studies, monthly meals with families in the church, we have places that students and young professionals can feel a sense of personal belonging, rich connection, and deeper understanding of the Gospel.
If you're a student interested in connecting with us, click here to let us know and we'll tell you about upcoming events and opportunities for fellowship!
If you are in college or college-aged, you are invited to join us in our weekly activities!

CCO Partnership
Believing that tomorrow's local, national, and world leaders are at the college and university of today, FPC is excited to be in a partnership with the college campus ministry organization, CCO. The CCO calls college students to serve Jesus Christ with their entire lives.
As a college campus ministry they are distinct in three ways:
- They develop students to be passionate leaders who serve Jesus Christ in their studies, jobs, communities, and families.
- They serve together with the church, inviting students into the lives of local congregations.
- They design each ministry to fit the needs of every campus they serve.
The CCO's CORE VALUES are:
- All things belong to God.
- Jesus changes people's lives.
- We love college students.
- We embrace God's multiethnic Kingdom
- Faithfulness is pursued together.
- We celebrate life.
