Inaugural Teen Leaders!
For the first ever East Texas Pro-Life Teen Leadership Camp, 80 teens and about 20 adults joined together each day to learn about what it means to be living in a post-Roe Texas. Before we knew that Roe vs. Wade would be overturned in the summer of 2022, we had already named the theme for our first camp “For a Time Such as This” from Queen Esther’s bravery to risk her life to save her people (Esther 4:14). Friendships were formed, and they have lasted. We are excited to see what happens in our second annual camp in 2023.
