Students Enter JSBC To Be Trained By Spirit-Filled Men And Women For The Glory Of God.

Times Of Prayer

Prayer plays a vital roll in the daily life of JSBC. Prayer times are made available to all of our students, and they are encouraged to attend these prayer meetings as much as possible. Multiple weekly prayer meetings are held at the College as well as the prayer meetings held at FWC. Also, very special to the students, are the times of “Hall Prayer,” which is a time designated to resident students to get together on their respective floors and share in devotions and prayer.

Chapel Attendance

Classroom of the Holy Spirit

All full-time students, regardless of whether or not they reside on campus, are required to attend Wednesday and Friday, for vibrant Pentecostal chapel services under the leadership of the president of the College. Professors and guest speakers will preach and teach the Word, each bringing their own unique experience and testimony of God’s grace, coupled with the anointing of the Holy Spirit to make for powerful times of learning and growth for the students. It is not uncommon for the Holy Spirit to move so strongly that the service is literally turned over to times of worship and altar time before the Lord.

Church Attendance

Family Worship Center, the sanctuary on the grounds of Jimmy Swaggart Ministries, is the home church for all JSBC students. All full-time students are required to faithfully attend both Sunday services and the Wednesday evening service. Students are encouraged to attend all other special services and conferences. Students who were Baton Rouge area residents attending a church of like faith before entering JSBC may leave their membership with and continue attending that church upon written approval from the dean of students.

While attending JSBC, students are encouraged to get involved in many of the activities and outreaches of FWC. Students will have the opportunity and privilege of learning and growing under the anointed ministry of Brother Swaggart and other outstanding pastors, evangelists, and missionaries.

Student Ministry

The student ministry program is one of the most important aspects of JSBC. In light of the Great Commission and the urgency of these last days, we believe that students must prepare to begin their ministries now.

Campus students must participate in student ministry each semester.  Ministry groups include, but are not limited to: Children’s Ministry, Church Helps, & Youth Ministry.  Students must rotate through each of the ministry groups on an assigned rotation. The Campus Pastor will assign the student ministry group rotations.  Weekly ministry group responsibilities will be assigned per ministry area leaders. Student attendance and participation will be evaluated with periodic feedback provided by the ministry area leaders.
