Dear Friends,

We have exciting news — We are extending Early Bird registration for LEAD to April 18^th! We want to make sure that YOU have the opportunity to save $50 on LEAD registration! 

The next generation needs leaders who will take a bold stand for what they believe. That’s one of the reasons LEAD exists! 

LEAD empowers teens to become tomorrow’s leaders by giving them the tools to build a strong biblical worldview, equipping them with a hands-on understanding of the legislative process, sharpening their critical thinking and public speaking skills, and preparing them to confidently engage in the fight for life, family, and religious freedom! 

This summer, we’re thrilled to be welcoming Ryan Bomberger of the Radiance Foundation as our keynote speaker for LEAD. Ryan has an incredible pro-life testimony and we’re so excited to have him share with our students about his work in the pro-life movement. He will also be addressing critical race theory and how to talk biblically about race and justice.  

Students will also be interacting with lawmakers, lobbyists, pastors, business owners, artists, and professors who will help them think about what it looks like to live out their faith in a broad array of vocations. We want your teen to have the opportunity to be part of LEAD 2022!  

Don’t forget to register by April 18^th to get $50 off our regular rate! Click here to register.

Learn about LEAD!

What: A hands-on leadership and worldview camp which equips the next generation of Christian leaders to engage the culture.

Who: Highschool students ages 13–19.

When: July 24-29, 2022

Why: LEAD provides students with an opportunity to strengthen their worldview, develop leadership skills, and learn the legislative process!

At the beginning of the week, students are sworn in as members of the Minnesota House and Senate. As they take on the responsibilities of lawmakers, they get to learn the legislative process in a memorable, hands-on way while working with real bills that have been proposed here in our state!

Throughout the week, students also study biblical worldview and think about how the gospel shapes our response to tough cultural issues, hear from renowned speakers on topics like the sanctity of life, and grow in leadership skills as they work with their caucus to pass their legislation. We hope to see your teen at LEAD next summer!

Early Bird (register and pay in full by April 18th): $449

Regular: $499

Financial aid is available.
