LIFECYCLES teens are loved unconditionally, encouraged, challenged, empowered, and supported in an environment of trust, accountability, and responsibility designed to build confidence, hope, life skills, and a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. LIFECYCLES leaders make the promise offered in the book of Hebrews: “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” In exchange, we ask LIFECYCLES teens
to be faithful, available, and teachable. The LIFECYCLES experience engages teens in a habitual routine
- Monday evenings the girls’ team meets for riding and mentoring
- Tuesdays and Thursday evenings are for team training rides, a meal and mentoring
- Saturdays are for longer, scenic rides to build miles and self-confidence through achievement....with meals and more mentoring.
- Summers include a week long trip to continue to build confidence and change lives through leadership development, service, teamwork, and dreaming, all while seeing the country. Mentoring builds skills in money management, the value of nutrition and fitness, and in engaging effectively with authority figures. Mentoring and encouragement builds the desire to stay in school, find post high school employment, or apply for a vocational school or college. Boys and girls are encouraged, challenged, and lifted up in an optimistic, hopeful environment. The entire LIFECYCLES experience and all the associated gear, meals, transportation, and mentoring is free of charge.
