ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR 2025-2026
EXPLORE THE FOUR FOCUSES OF COMPASS
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to provide a gap year program that is centered around discipleship in which students are invited to deepen their personal relationship with Jesus. We seek to lead and support them as they consider their future by working to understand who God has uniquely created them to be and how to bring glory to Him.
Compass was created for students that are trying to figure out what's next and are desiring to deepen their relationship with Jesus, grow personally within community, and adventure in God’s creation. We hope to equip students to be faithful stewards of the gifts God has given them and to use them for His glory. As we disciple, we will have four main focuses: Bible and Life Skills Classes, Missions Education, Wilderness Experiences, and Community
Compass Theme Verse:
“Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms. If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen.”
-1 Peter 4:10-11 (NIV)
