WHO WE ARE
The college ministry of First Waco exists to bring students into community with God and each other. Our motto is “Growing, changing, traveling. Together.” We want to always be growing in our faith and relationships, open to changing and transforming into the people God is calling us to be, and traveling through this life journey one step of faith at a time. And we’re doing it all together. We are not on this journey alone, and we want to invite you to join us as we navigate life, culture, faith, and how the Gospel fits into all of this. We’d love to get to know you!
Taylor Buntin, College Director, looks forward to meeting you and walking alongside you in your faith journey during your college days. Please contact Taylor at [email protected]
We are also in the process of renovating the Wesley building located only a block away from Baylor’s campus (821 Speight Ave, Waco, TX). Once the renovations are finished, our college ministry will operate primarily out of that building. The Wesley is remaining a student organization, so we will be involved with campus and student life, but we will operate under the umbrella of First Waco. We are so excited for you to see the space and make it your own!
