 Testimony

"Dave talks about scripture and money on the teen’s level without dumbing it down. The activities, discussions, and presentation of this are perfect for teens. I’m doing it as a special Sunday School series, and it has been one of the best and most relevant curriculums I’ve done. My youth have grown spiritually and in wisdom in the 5 short weeks we’ve been doing this. They’re not bored and have enjoyed it as well. This has been an awesome experience and well worth the money. I highly recommend this curriculum."
- David, youth minister in TX

Worlds of Fun and Oceans of Fun trips:  We’re doing it again this summer.  6 times throughout the summer we’ll load up the bus and head out to Worlds of Fun and/or Oceans of Fun.  We’re planning on parking on the Oceans of Fun side so you’ll have the option of going to either park or both.  Friends are always welcome!  See summer schedule (above) for dates and times.  We recommend getting a season pass.  You can use your youth account to help offset the cost.  If you want to do that, then please let us know so we can order you one.  Also let us know which one you want (single park pass or dual).  We don’t receive any special discounts as a church/group so we suggest you get them on your own if you’re not going to use your youth account.  Price chopper has them and you can also get them online.  www.worldsoffun.com
