In between events, trips, and retreats, we do day trips and activities.  We celebrate marriages and birthdays.  We visit the sick and mourn at funerals.  We attend graduations, concerts, and sporting events.  We help with food, clothing, and shelter for the families we disciple. We counsel and pray.  

In the past two years, eight students accepted Christ and were baptized.  They are still following Jesus!  Several more students started / continued pressing into their faith.

We require our students to attend church, do well in school, be involved in extra-curricular activities, and live out their faith.  In the past 3 years, the average GPA of our students has been above a 3.0!  We do life with our students and their families.  We will continue to disciple, train, lead, and encourage those God brings our way to have a closer relationship with God through Jesus.
