What is Wilderness Trail?
July 20-25 | $400 (can pay in installments)

Wilderness Trail is a backpacking ministry that hosts youth groups each week over the Summer. At Wilderness Trail, we'll be camping, backpacking, playing in the woods, and growing closer as the Body of Christ and servant leaders. This trip is open for students who have just finished 6th grade through graduating Seniors.

Wilderness Trail believes that, "through a journey in the wilderness, youth step out of their comfort zones and dive deeper into the love of God. Discovering God’s love helps young people catch the joy of serving. They find that they want this life abundant not just on the hike, but in their communities as they return home, too."

What is ASP?
June 28-July 5 | $375 (paid in installments)

The Appalachian Service Project (ASP) is a trip that we go on every Summer that is available for students finishing 8th grade through graduating Seniors. This is a mission focused trip that encourages our students to help serve others through their presence and hard work. 

ASP focuses on "critical home repair, replacement, and transformational relationships."
