Teen parents face challenges such as poverty, limited family support, housing insecurity, interrupted education, and a lack of mentoring relationships.

At Parent Life, support for life doesn’t end at childbirth. We provide pregnant and parenting teens with resources, community, and intentional adult mentorship, empowering them to thrive in every aspect of life.

This Thursday, hear more about Parent life at the See the Story tour!

Over 200 people came to Berkshire’s fundraiser to celebrate nine baptisms, hear student stories, and support the ministry. We experienced an abundance of joy from the Lord and favor from the community who blessed us with 80 baskets to raffle off—over DOUBLE what was expected!

God is good and He is working in the lives of young people across northeast Ohio. We praise Him for His mercies which will have ripple effects for generations to come!

Deaf Teen Quest had an exciting week at camp, where students had the opportunity to explore fun activities and participate in service projects! This was a meaningful week where Deaf and Hard of Hearing students got to experience the gospel in their heart language and learn how to lead by example as the hands and feet of Jesus.
