There are as many as 400,000 kids throughout the Kansas City Metro who do not know that God has made them for an eternity-changing relationship with Himself. We offer authentic, unconditional friendship to these kids who desire to be safe, understood, known, loved and accepted as they are. We enter into kids’ worlds and share our lives and the Gospel with them, and walk alongside them as they discover what it means to live life ‘to the full.’
RICK MUMFORD Associate Regional Director, KC Metro
