What Youth Groups Are Saying:" For any youth leader looking for a life changing and truly lasting trip - this is it. The spiritual development and challenge the Mystery Trip offers has not been rivaled by anything I've seen to date. I've taken two completely different groups to this trip and could not have asked for better outcomes." " I have to tell you that I have worked with many organizations over the years, and have been VERY impressed with how you balance the spiritual growth, service opportunities and leadership development so well. They are woven together very well! Our group worked hard, sought and experienced God in new ways and discovered many new things about others in the group and themselves each day." " Gave me the option to focus on what was important to this group at this time. I asked for a trip to focus on team building. AWESOME, I could not have asked for a more appropriate experience. Prior to the trip I asked the kids, "What do you think we need to work on this trip?" They answered, "Nothing, we think we are fine." After returning they were amazed at how much they NEEDED to grow and didn't recognize that need. Again, AWESOME JOB!" " I cannot tell you how amazed I was and continue to be by the impact the Mystery Trip - and the leadership modeled by the CP Staff - has had on my youth group. This was the best retreat experience I have ever had in 14 years of involvement in youth ministry as a student and as a leader. I have never seen a group grow so much in the course of one week. I don't have the words to describe how effective your preparation, your processes, and your programming was for the goals we set for this trip . . . I was overwhelmed in a positive way by everything." " This trip far exceeded my expectations in every aspect. We were well prepared for the experience and the staff worked diligently to make this experience a powerful one for all of us." " CP was truly one of the most amazing experiences of my life. It taught me to think for myself and search for and answer rather than taking the easy way out. God has blessed this place, the staff, and all the youth that come. Thanks a lot ya'll!" " Confrontation Point made our group more than I could ever do alone." " This trip was incredibly organized from the beginning training to the final tent being taken down. Our group is leaving here closer to God and each other. I will recommend this trip to every pastor in my network." " My expectations of CP were very high coming in-my experiences here were more than I could ask for. The counselors are wonderful, God-filled and encouraging young people. What an example they are for our next generation." " CP is a worthwhile experience filled with the living and breathing Holy Spirit. If you want an experience that will make a lifelong impact on your youth, this is the trip you want! The trip is a great combo of adventure, service and spiritual discipline. It will rock your world!" " The reason I keep returning to CP is that I see the program work in a variety of scenarios. Each year the participants bring a different flavor and a different chemistry but the ultimate outcome is lasting impressions of people serving each other through the teachings of Jesus Christ and the presence of the Holy Spirit among us each time we gather." " As a youth leader, this was the best experience I could have imagined for my kids." " God and I? We are totally chums thanks to CP!" " The Mission Trip was a defining moment that allowed for phenomenal change and growth." " I appreciated the joint effort of CP's leaders to work with us and be united as a team of leaders with the same goals to see our youth grow in their journey with the Lord." " The seed thoughts (devotionals) made me think long and hard, and they exposed things to me that I did not want to deal with. It made me deal with my issues." " Our youth would not experience the grace and humility that we have and received this week in a year of youth group activities. The Confrontation Point home repair experience teaches youth how to be disciples of Jesus Christ and is amazing!" " If you want your kids to be challenged spiritually, physically, mentally, and socially, go to CP. It rocks!" " I'm continually blown away at how AWESOME CP continues to be and also strives to be. Thank you so much!" " This will be a powerful experience for your group! They will be challenged to grow as a community and grow closer to God." " The unique focus upon leadership development sets this ministry apart." " A powerful, life changing experience! An awesome setting for our youth to be servants and to learn about their personal relationships with each other and with God." " Every youth member had a chance to be a leader. Through their leadership, I could discover their great potential and talents given by God." " I highly recommend this experience for leadership development and spiritual development of your youth!" " My group is still benefiting from the trip that happened over a month ago." " I was amazed at the fact that those in my group I was concerned about pulled through and actually became leaders during the week." " The group building challenges were awesome and our group really came together as a whole. This was the biggest goal of our week and it was a smashing success." " Our group was stretched in so many ways, and God used each situation (good and difficult) to challenge them physically, emotionally and spiritually. They became very united very quickly for not knowing one another too well." "I loved the challenges, both physical and mental, from the mountain climbing and caving to the mission work. It's also great just to be together this week." "This was my first time at CP and I love it! There were so many things to do that will help you grow in your self as well as in God. This is a very spiritual trip. Thank you God!" "This week provided a great opportunity to share God's love while building stronger relationships within our group. It was a great experience!" "We came to serve and obey, to build, to love. At the same time however, we were served, taught, fed and loved. (fed well by the way) I never expected so many good things in return." "I really felt that God was working at the worksite and that we grew closer as a group!" "This week was one of the best experiences of my life. It was such a humbling experience to see these people's homes. I take so much for granted, and after this week I am so thankful for what I have. God has truly blessed me." "I saw God working in the guides who openly shared their testimonies and were out there because of love." "Confrontation Point has really challenged our group this week. We have been pushed beyond our comfort zones, faced our fears, and have become stronger. We have grown spiritually and improved our communication with God. The CP staff is great!" "CP challenged me and reshaped my faith in the Lord. It has been a life-changing experience that I'd recommend to anyone." "This was my second year coming to CP, but this was way more than I expected. I had more fun that I ever thought I would, and got closer to God than ever. This week was incredible." "The ministries of CP will challenge you physically, spiritually, and emotionally. You will leave with a deeper faith, a routine for daily devotion, new skills for construction, and with insights about yourself and your ability to step up to a challenge." "Monday was fulfillment day. "The Lord has worked through us in amazing ways. It was an honor to be able to work with amazing youth and amazing staff, and amazing kids. Anyone who decides to work with CP will no doubt experience Christ." "We broke the tub faucet while working in the bathroom, so we had to call a plumber. The first plumber we called, forgot to come. So our CP leader called every plumber in the phone book. The last plumber agreed to come out right away. It was easily fixed and the plumber asked why we were working on the house. We told him we were doing it to serve, so he did not charge us for anything he did." "Good times! I hope I can come back next year, I learned so much!" "God was everywhere this week- from our leaders to our work crews to the people we worked for. It was amazing." "I think our group will never be the same again. We were all forced to overcome fear in some way. From wasps to dung, we had to fight our fears to get work done." "This experience gave the group a chance to grow and shine and become partners in God's service to others. I saw God work in the faces of the youth as they learned new skills, confidence in themselves, and sacrifice in the Lord's work." "I saw God working in so many places this week. Most specifically, I saw it in the faces of the people for whom we were working. The gratitude they showed us for our service was so rewarding. God really blessed all of us this week." "Gramma Branstater was an adorable lady, yet she was what stretched me. To sit and talk with her and discover so many stories that she was waiting to tell, opened my eyes to see that others at home have stories that they want to share. I just need to stop and take the time. This week has been one that I will never forget. It has opened my eyes to a whole new world. The ways that God has spoken to me have been awesome and I want to share this experience with everyone. My life will never be the same again." " This was hard-core stuff! I felt like I changed people's lives. If you are insecure about leading you won't be after this! I felt like I listened to Jesus; it was hard-core!" " The CP Staff helped me come out of my shell and share my feelings." " This Confrontation Point Trip was an excellent step on my journey with God. I was able to learn, grow, and have fun at the same time. It was the BOMB - diggity - Dog!" "For a few days, the kids who lived at the house where we worked forgot about their problems and just had fun letting us work with them. It was great!" "The entire week at CP was very exciting. The challenges that we faced helped to develop our minds and hearts. The spiritual atmosphere was intoxicating. Things that we did weren't just fun and games, but had something to do with God, the Bible, and His love." "Jesus challenged us to have childlike faith and truly trust in Him with all of our heart, mind, soul & strength. Praise Jesus for an incredible week!!" "The week we spent in Tennessee was great! I would like to thank the CP staff for their prayerful and efficient organization. I could not image a better team of counselors. They embodied the spirit of servant leadership the entire week…. The youth of St. Mark's were blessed by our week, and will remember it the rest of our lives." "There were many trials over the week, but with God's love our group overcame them all. Through building porches to whitewater rafting, we stuck together with Christ who strengthened us." "This week has changed my views about life a lot. I feel a lot different about the poor than I used to." |
