JULY MISSION OF THE MONTH is TreeHouse Teen Outreach of Minnetonka –
Under the direction of Sam Randall, a safe space has been created for teens to talk about what’s really going on in their lives. Through weekly support group, teens get to practice vulnerability and receive support from peers and adult leaders. During “Connect”, we dig into the Bible and learn more about our God-given purpose. This program is designed to help teens to develop spiritual and personal life skills needed to grow into healthy young adults. “Next” offers group programming and personalized coaching to help teens create an educational or vocational track for their future and gain skills to be prepared for life beyond high school. When a teen joins TreeHouse, they have the opportunity to get connected with an adult mentor. Through this, teens get dedicated one-on-one time with a safe, caring adult who serves as a consistent presence and a voice of love in their life. Your support helps to provide free transportation and meals.
Please give generously to this important mission of our church.
