Royal Rangers | Girl's Ministries

What  is Next Gen?

Next Gen Ministries is comprised of the Royal Rangers and Girls Ministries Programs.
These same gender programs strive to help mold and shape the next generation of
Godly Men and Women by meeting the boys and girls where they are now and with age
appropriate discipleship.

Royal Rangers

Royal Rangers is a scouting program anchored in the Word of God. It is cross
generational, with events and tracks for boys and men from Kindergarten through adulthood. It teaches boys how to become Christlike men through hands on learning and intentional discipleship through the leading of men.

girl's ministries

Girls Ministry is a program for girls in which they are discipled by Godly women in the hopes that they themselves will grow into Godly women. Our goal is for these girls and young women if learn of their identity in Christ from a young age rather than feeling pressured to forge their identity in this ever changing world.
