Hi, we'd like to invite you to come along with us on an amazing adventure! This adventure takes us into one of the most godless places in our world today, the public high schools and middle schools of our nation and world. American teenagers not only represent the future leaders and parents of our nation and world, but they are a major influence in today's society both in the US and globally. Seldom will a day go by that teenagers are not the focus of national and worldwide news, both for good and bad. We work with students because they represent the most responsive age group to the gospel. Over 80% of those who receive Christ do so by age 18.

After serving in field roles here in the US for many years, and then coaching volunteers, we shifted to a High School Global Mission role to focus more of our attention on the 97% of youth in our world that live outside the borders of the US. Our mission is to send high school & college students, whom God has called, on short-term trips and 1 to 2 year internships to help launch spiritual movements amongst teenagers everywhere so that every teen knows someone who truly follows Christ.  This video tells a great story of what we get to see happen both overseas on missions and back home when students return to their campus. 

More specifically, most of my role focuses on developing partnerships at Christian high schools & colleges across our nation where we've discovered there are thousands of students who would LOVE to bring the message of the gospel to teenagers if someone gave them an appropriate challenge, and opportunity to go. This is all part of finding more ways to give students like Christina an opportunity to go to the world and help reach their fellow peers. I’d love to tell you more when we have an opportunity!!
