First Mt Juliet

We are excited for the opportunity to take two groups to Student Leadership University (SLU) in 2024: SLU 101 in Orlando, FL from January 12-15 & SLU 201 in Washington, D.C. from July 15-19

SLU is a credible ministry that exists to “equip the students of today to be the Christian leaders of tomorrow.” This is not a retreat, a camp, or a mission trip. This is a top-tier leadership conference. In just four days students will be sitting in 12+ sessions lead by high-impact leaders, experts, and executives covering a variety of topics such as Rules and Tools of Leadership, Worldview Development, Business Leadership, Personality Assessment, Time and Goal Management, Calling, Influence, Cultural Engagement, and more. If you would like more detailed information, we encourage you to visit slulead.com and CLICK HERE to hear from students about their experiences.

We believe the SLU experience can inspire, equip, and propel students into strong ownership of their faith, the pursuit of a life of servant leadership, and an all-in commitment to be who God has created them to be for His kingdom purposes. Each year, this opportunity is available to students in 8th-12th grades. We take one combined group comprised of students from Mt. Juliet Christian Academy and the Student Ministry of First Mt. Juliet. There is limited space for each group, and we desire to take a group of students with potential and commitment. Therefore, we ask each student planning to go to Student Leadership University to complete the application process to the best of their ability.

There are two parts to the SLU Application/Registration process: Personal and Reference.

For the Personal part of this application, each student and their family need to complete the SLU Student Application/Registration Form.

For the Reference part of this application, have an adult in your life complete the SLU Adult Reference form. Choose an adult that is important to you, knows you well, and will give you an honest reference.

Important Dates:

November 5th: Applications for SLU 101 are due.

November 19th: The SLU 101 team will be finalized.

November 27th: A 2024 Waiver Form and a $250 deposit is due to secure your spot for SLU 101.

January 8th: Remaining balance for SLU 101 is due.

Estimated Costs:

SLU 101: ~$1100

SLU 201: ~$1500

The final cost of each SLU trip is not finalized yet, and we are hoping to offset the costs thanks to our generous donors at the Annual Golf Tournament!! In order to manage applications and funds all in one place, all payments will be made out to First Baptist Church Mt. Juliet via check. Please contact us if you need to discuss payment options or plans.
