Missouri Net News [link removed] NextGen Academy: Leadership and Team Building
One year ago, Next Generation Ministries created the NextGen Academy to be an environment for students and young adults to discover and grow in their faith alongside friends and mentors during quarterly events. Students will explore spiritual gifts, leadership development, and service and mission. This exciting, free program enables students ages 13-18 from across the state to grow in their faith amongst a community of curious Christians. NextGen Academy from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on September 21 in Columbia, Missouri, is centered around leadership and team building. Attendees will meet at Venture Out, a ropes course and teambuilding center offering high ropes and on-the-ground challenge courses. The Team Challenge Course, Odyssey High Ropes Course, and Alpine Climbing Tower are fun and effective tools our group will use to build trust, learn conflict resolution skills and practice successful communication strategies.
