Quote
“This last week I went on a missions trip to the Navajo Nation in Arizona. It was filled with God, hard-working students and hearts that wanted to serve. I learned about the importance of putting others above myself. And I learned that when things go wrong God is still good. Thank you everyone that prayed for us and thank you to my fellow students for making it an amazing trip.”

We ♥ teenagers + We ♥ communities
Teenagers need to encounter Jesus outside their normal context to deepen their faith and broaden their perspectives. Plus, communities need to be valued—not as mere recipients but as partners who have stories worth sharing in.
When we bring the two together, incredible things happen.
