We started our summer in Missouri at "Kids Across America"- U Know! Through a partnership with a local pastor we took our largest group to KAA. Eighteen students and three adults enjoyed the best week of our year. Our youth learned how to "Walk It Out." We had several youth make commitments to follow Jesus and start living by the Truth.
The majority of our summer was spent at "Summer Slam." This was our fourth year of this 5-week program (includes community service) and our theme was money management. We had over 30 youth learn about Biblical principals of saving, budgeting, giving, investing and spending money wisely. The youth also got to enjoy a trip to lake Manitou, an overnighter to Oakbrook Vally and a day trip to the Indianapolis Zoo.
Bridges high school students participated in a nine week Bible Study on sex and relationships. They were able to learn what the Bible says about these key issues.
We wrapped up our summer at SpringHill Camp where we had nine youth spend a week in Southern Indiana. Three students gave their lives to Christ for the first time and one even got to share her testimony at the closing ceremonies.
