First Orlando Students exists to help students follow Jesus and lead their friends to do the same!

Sunday Mornings Small Groups

8:30am, 10am, and 11:30am

Our Sunday Morning Small Group experience builds community around interactive teaching and engaging, Christ-centered discussion. Students are split into grade- and gender-specific groups with adult group leaders to help lead students in meaningful discussion.

Special Needs Small Group: If your student has special needs, we have a small group experience just for them as well! During our 10:00am and 11:30am services, we have a table led by trained volunteers who love hanging with our special needs friends. They still sit in service, engage in worship, and partcipate in all the fun activities we have, just in a way that makes them feel most comfortable! If you have a special needs student and would like to learn more about the opportunities we have for them, please email Britt Nelson at BrittanyNelson@FirstOrlando.com.

Where: Uth Center, First Baptist Orlando, John Young Campus (3000 S John Young Pkwy, Orlando, FL 32805)

Wednesday Night Midweek Gatherings

Middle School Midweeks: Our Middle Schoolers meet on-campus each Wednesday from 6:30-8:30pm for a midweek service experience! Middle School Students meet each week in KIDS 2-220 (KIDS 2 Building, room 220 on the second floor). This is a space dedicated to helping our students grow as a community united under Christ!

High School Midweeks: Each week we host our High School-only One Nights in a space specifically curated for them! One Nights are designed to help High School students discover their One purpose as part of One community serving One God! Join us every Wednesday night on the first floor of The Uth Center (Faith Hall) from 6:30-8:30pm for the best High School worship experience in Orlando!
