Adventure Teens

What are Adventure Teens?

A Place to Grow, Lead, and Find Purpose

Adventure Teens is a leadership development program for middle and high school students, designed to help students reach their fullest potential and succeed in life today and in the future.

Mission 1:27 creates opportunities for teens to grow in confidence, leadership, and faith through intentional conversations, mentorship, service, and real-life experiences. Students are encouraged to strengthen relationships, develop skills like communication, decision-making, and problem-solving, and discover that they were created on purpose and for a purpose.

GROWING LEADERS FOR LIFE.

Adventure Teens provides a safe, supportive environment where students explore real-life topics through engaging small-group discussions and hands-on experiences. Along the way, they build strong character, grow in their faith, and develop the confidence and life skills they need to succeed in school, at home, and in their communities.

FOUR PILLARS OF GROWTH

  • Helping teens embrace learning, achieve grade-level competencies, and celebrate progress through personalized academic support. Students are encouraged to grow in confidence while strengthening the skills they need for success in school.

    Homework support, peer tutoring opportunities, and enriching workshops provide additional encouragement and help students reach their full potential.

  • Providing professional development opportunities and mentorship that expand future possibilities and introduce students to careers they may not have previously considered.

    Internships, field trips, service opportunities, and exposure to community leaders help teens explore their interests, develop leadership skills, and become positive contributors in their communities.

  • Encouraging teens to discover new opportunities, develop the skills they need to manage their lives and navigate their world, and strengthen their integrity while building healthy relationships.

    Through character and leadership development, summer camp experiences, and intentional conversations about faith, service, decision-making, problem-solving, and goal setting, students gain practical life skills that prepare them for the future.

  • Teaching teens that God loves them, they can trust Him, and they were created on purpose for a purpose through meaningful relationships and everyday examples of faith.

    Bible lessons, Christ-centered mentorship, prayer, and staff support at school and extracurricular activities encourage students to grow in their relationship with Christ and live out their faith each day.
