The Full Story
Compassion House Young Teens Program
Our teen program was designed with the help of our teens, 15-19. As a community outreach ministry, we offer a safe place for them to work, unwind and relax. We want to get our young people involved in the community by having them work with kids from the community. We want to provide a positive work experience and skills they need as they grow and mature. We offer part time after school work, weekend, and summer jobs. We provide financial workshops to help them to better understand money and how money can work for them. We stand on the word of God to, "Train up a child in the way he should go; and when he is old, he will not depart from it". As a minister I offer spiritual counseling for any support needed to help them better understand to deal with their daily concerns. Through prayer, communication, and problem-solving, we want them to know there is always a choice to be made.

Mission
Our purpose is to help save one young soul at a time by teaching them the skills and tools needed to thrive in this society. To teach them they are the first partaker in their own life and their choices made now will affect their future self.
Vision
To watch them grow into productive young men and women who love the Lord and pray they too trust and believe that the word of God has purpose and promise for each of them.
For I know the plans I have for you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not evil, to give you hope and a future Jeremiah 29:11
