Life has a purpose and we have a responsibility to help our youth REACH, CONNECT, GROW, SERVE, and HONOR God in their lives. This is accomplished by focusing on helping the students understand that we are created in God’s image and we have the opportunity to share God’s love with the world; focusing on understanding the basic need that people have to be deeply connected with others in significant relationships; focusing on the truth that we were created to know God and grow spiritually by spending time with God; exploring the reality that God’s unique design provides us with the privilege to serve others; and focusing on the truth that God rested on the seventh day to show us the importance of taking time to stop the busyness of life and focus on what’s important.

“Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for

the believers through your speech, behavior, love, faith, and purity.” 1 Timothy 4:12
