In a godless culture, we need to meet some critical needs for our young men. In this one-day event, we will build up teen guys and show them how to find Christ-centered character. Our goal is to rise above society’s confusing messages about “masculinity” and equip young men with a biblical approach to their identity.
This event is for teen guys (7th-12th grades) and will be held Saturday, August 26th, 2023. The cost is $15.
Please note that to be guaranteed t-shirts in the correct quantity and size for your group you must register no later than August 11. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
