Aven Bridges has lived his whole life in the beautiful Show Me state of Missouri. One of his favorite traits of Missouri is that it has all four seasons, truly showing the splendor of God’s creation all year round. Some of his passions include exploring the Ozark outdoors, playing baseball, 3D printing, and creating music. He and his two brothers, Paxton and Huck, have been homeschooled since early elementary. Aven has been involved with TeenPact for five years and has loved the journey. While there are so many incredible opportunities as an intern, he is most looking forward to the unexpected, intentional moments with both students and staff. It’s often in these interactions and conversations that God is seen working and making powerful, lasting connections in these interactions and conversations.
