Isaiah's Story

MEET ISAIAH,

A 17-year-old who was navigating the challenges of the juvenile justice system after a serious mistake. He carried the weight of his past, unsure of what the future held.

Then, he attended our one-day summer camp.

At first, Isaiah was guarded, unsure of what to expect. But as the day unfolded—through hands-on activities, powerful discussions, and genuine connection—something shifted. He began to see that people believed in him, that his story wasn’t over.

And in a moment we’ll never forget, Isaiah made the decision to raise his hand and accept Christ into his heart. This breakthrough wasn’t just about one day. It was about opening the door to a new future.

Your support makes this possible. It creates opportunities for justice-involved youth to experience love, hope, and transformation—sometimes in just one day.
