The Current

The Current is the college ministry at FBC San Marcos. We are a passionate group of college and young adults who believe in the model of Acts 2:42-47 – we are to be devoted to God (Worship & Bible Study), to each other (community groups and fellowship), and to the world (mission).
It is our desire that you would come visit us, get to know us, and join our community to help spread the love of Christ to San Marcos and Texas State University!

LEADERSHIP

CLINT AND MONICA FOLLOWELL

Clint Followell is the Student Minister at FBC. He is very energetic, a lover of all things sports, and a master at growing a beard. His wife Monica assists with the college ministry through the Bible Fellowship Hour class, hosting special events and with discipling college students and young adults. She is also the Minister of Missions and Outreach at FBC. She loves to take students on mission trips. Together they have three children, Brandon, David and Asher.

Bible Study

Our college/young adult group meet together on Sundays at 9:30am in room 208 for Bible Study. The college/young adult group normally attends the 11am worship service. We also meet for other fellowship opportunities. To know when these activities are happening, students subscribe to our group messaging app by texting @collegefbc to #81010. 

Free Lunch

The first two Sundays following Labor Day, we host a free lunch for college students. The lunch is served directly after the second service. It is a great way to meet new students and to begin making new friends. Our college ministry loves to feed college students.

Serve

We encourage our college students to get plugged into the life and ministry of the church. Many college students find a place to serve. Serve through our mission ministry, college ministry, music ministry or youth ministry. There are opportunities to work at Parent’s Night Out each month for a little pay (check out the Preschool Ministry page for more information about PNO). Several of our upperclassmen college students find a place to serve in our youth ministry as youth leaders. We ask that college students interested go through our year-long discipleship program first.

Scholarship Opportunities

Are you interested in serving, but don’t have the funds to do so? Maybe we can help. Many of our college students volunteer for the Mexico Mission Trips to Acuna, Mexico. Those trips are $60. You can apply for a 50% scholarship from the Minnie Knispel Scholarship Fund. For any questions about these opportunities, please contact Clint Followell at E-mail.

Special Events

We have several special events throughout the year. These events include parties, trips, concerts, game nights, and competitions. Our biggest competition of the year is the Turkey Bowl. It happens right before Thanksgiving Break at the SMA football field. It is a flag football game between the youth ministry and college ministry. College students must have attended 3 college ministry events before being allowed to play. The winner takes home the Turkey Bowl trophy and a year’s worth of bragging rights.
