For the majority of human history, a father was the main role model for his son.

Today 63% of dads feel they don't get enough time with their kids, and a mere 39% believe they are doing an excellent job raising them. Boys in particular are struggling. The blurring of gender lines, the cultural labeling of masculinity as "toxic", and the watering down or extinction of programs that train and equip boys to become men have left boys fearful and floundering as they seek to define what it means to be a man. A recent survey shows only 36% of parents believe churches are serving their sons well.

Trail Life is where boys thrive!

A Christ-Centered, Boy-Focused, Church-Based mentoring and discipleship journey that speaks to the heart of a boy, Trail Life is established on timeless values derived from the Bible and set in the context of outdoor adventure. Boys from Kindergarten through 12th grade are engaged in a Troop setting by male mentors where they are challenged to grow in character, understand their purpose, serve their community, and develop practical leadership skills to carry out the mission for which they were created.
