Read PostSomeone once said, “If you want to make good use of your time, you’ve got to know what’s most important and then give it all you’ve got.” These past few months of COVID quarantine have been odd. Like so many others, I started looking for ways to fill my time. I took up a […]
Read PostThe following is written by TeenPact graduate Fuzz Thomson of New Mexico. After attending as a student, Fuzz served as a staffer, Traveling Intern, and Program Director (2009). When my mom, Wendy Thomson (TeenPact New Mexico’s State Coordinator since before New Mexico was a state… basically), told me and my siblings about the #alumnimatch, it immediately […]
Read Post“I’m not sure I can do this,” I thought, my red pen aimed at the crisp, white pages. Summer was winding down; the semester loomed ahead. I knew I couldn’t finish this project with college classes and work. I considered postponing the project until Christmas, but the more I thought and prayed about it, the […]
Read PostThe date is April 21st, 2014 and a shy, insecure 15-year-old boy is riding in the backseat of a minivan as it pulls into the parking lot. Turning around from the driver’s seat, his dad gives some final encouragement. “Make the most of your week here. You guys might make some lifelong friendships,” he says. […]
Read PostTeenPact National Elections are right around the corner. This has given me nearly a year to reflect on my own experience with the election process. Wow. What a journey. Over a year ago, I had decided that running for President would be an adventure and a challenge that God wanted me to boldly embrace. […]
Read PostThere’s nothing quite like arriving at National Convention. After surviving those last few minutes of driving (which are the longest part of the trip), you swing your car door open, and you’re greeted by a hot Tennessee breeze and hundreds of excited strangers. Even for the most extroverted of us, this sea of faces […]
Read PostThis was me. A 9-year-old going to my first TeenPact One Day Class. Wrinkled shirt, clip-on tie, and a nervous smile. Adorable… I know…. Like many, I was so, so nervous as I approached the lectern to start reading my funny bill (pretty sure it was about ice cream). My hands were shaking as I […]
Read PostThis year I was introduced to TeenPact for the first time. When I arrived at the New York State Capitol for my first Four Day Class, I really had no idea what to think. Would these be a bunch of strict people who only use thee’s and thou’s? Was I going to listen to stodgy […]

Read PostIt’s been a crazy few months for me, serving as a Traveling Intern with TeenPact, and getting to see the nation as part of the experience. I visited seventeen states, met hundreds of people and traveled thousands of miles. Numerous people have asked me what the best part of my season was. There’s so many […]
Read PostI’m struck with a loss for words. How do you describe the blessing and the impact something like TeenPact has been and has made? I entered this organization at thirteen, and now five years later, the time has come to enter a new stage of life. I honestly cannot even express how thankful I am […]
Read PostI have never been able to say this truthfully until tonight. I am undone in the presence of Christ. The other two TeenPact classes I staffed left me changed because of things God did to me and in me. This class left me changed because of things I watched God do in others. I saw […]

Read PostHello. My name is Noah, and TeenPact is my life. You think I speak in jest, or maybe that I just really love this ministry? No. TeenPact is my life. I want to talk about what I’ve learned from this ministry over the last decade or so. I first met a TeenPact staffer when I was […]
