“Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love.” - Ephesians 4:15-16

We are a non-profit organization in the East Texas area. Our mission is to glorify God by helping recent high school graduates take their next step toward lasting, godly community by connecting them to each other and unified local churches.

We do this in three ways. We put on a weekend retreat (ETX Connection Camp) at the beginning of each school year to welcome freshmen looking to get connected with the local Christian body. We host a Ministry Fair, for local students, alongside our ministry partner team. This provides an opportunity for exposure to and conversation with local bodies. We initiate and support ongoing Connection Groups. These groups are formed at camp, counselor-led, and continue throughout the fall semester.
