Through dynamic experiences, TeenPact seeks to inspire youth in their relationship with Christ and train them to understand the political process, value their liberty, defend the Christian faith, and engage the culture around them. “Changing lives to change the world” is more than a vision statement to us. It’s what we do every day.
At TeenPact, we believe students learn best by doing. That’s why our State Classes are comprised of focused hands-on leadership training. With classes offered across the nation and for students ages 8-19, young people will quickly discover how to embrace their call as the next generation of leaders through the unique tools, teaching, and opportunities TeenPact provides.
Our Alumni Events take students deeper in their relationship with Christ as they build lasting community and grow through intentional leadership training. While events activities range from meeting legislators on Capitol Hill to team building in South Dakota, the focus is the same – training students to be influential and servant-hearted leaders.
Join us at the manliest Alumni event we offer–TeenPact Venture! Enjoy the all-inclusive campus of Fort Bluff, the panoramic mountain views, rustic beauty of the lodge, flag-football, incredible sessions, and Christ-centered brotherhood. Participate in the night games, grow as a team, ask tough questions, and seek the scriptures for the truth of biblical masculinity.
At a time when societal standards for young men are declining, TeenPact Venture presents a challenge – for young men to be unshakable leaders characterized by integrity, humility, and wisdom. This event is a week for guys to explore what it means to be a man of Godly character in a society where little is expected of them.
First introduced in 2011, TeenPact Venture gives young men direct training in valuable life skills such as financial and time management, interviewing, auto and home maintenance, social etiquette, and more. Additionally, students test their physical limits and work as a team through sports competitions, obstacle courses, and other team-building exercises. The pinnacle of the week is a championship flag football game played on the last night. The tournament is played throughout the week and culminates with a final game under the bright lights of an official football field.
Most importantly, TeenPact Venture equips young men to grow in their walk with Christ. Through daily worship, devotions, and discipleship, students are trained to be men of faith, integrity, and action. Students study scripture to discern what it means to be a man of God while learning the value of accountability with their peers.
Led by an all-star team, including our 2025 Intern Guys and Program Directors, Venture provides young men with a launchpad to pursue excellence and impact their world for Christ.
