For many young people, college life marks the transition from adolescence to maturity. College is the time when the young leave the nest and spread their wings, intellectually, spiritually and socially. They learn new ideas and discover the truth about the world and themselves.

Away from the immediate guidance of their parents and the safe environment of the home, college students have to make new choices every day for themselves. The once regulated hours of school, family time and church give way to the rhythm of college life. In the transition, for some, church attendance becomes a book on the shelf waiting to be opened only before the final exam.

OPC would like to provide spiritual opportunities for young adults after they’ve graduated from high school, such as disciplining middle or high school students and participating in adult mission trips.
