Ministry Fair

Ministry Fair allows students the chance to interact face-to-face with dozens of local churches, para-church ministries and Christian student organizations in the Bryan/College Station area. We are thankful for the opportunity to show these students a part of the body of Christ as they enter this new community. This city is blessed with a large and diverse body of believers, and the Impact Ministry Fair is just a piece of the puzzle that is at work in Bryan/College Station!

APPLYING TO ATTEND

All churches and ministries desiring to attend Ministry Fair must complete an application and interview process. The process will include the below application, a connecting point with one or more of our board members (i.e. phone interview and/or face-to-face interview), contact with student references and a final review process by the Impact Board of Directors. Below is a schedule to give expectations of the process timeline:

Application Deadline November 15, 2024

We will contact all applying churches and ministries by May 1st with our decisions.
