“Thank you Frontline Bible Church for supporting us and our ministry here in David, Panama” – Alvaro
Please checkout the Barrantes family in the Panama Section below.
Our mission is to transform the lives of struggling teenagers and their families.
Our 12 month, therapy-based program exists to transform the lives of struggling teenagers and their families. Our program is designed for families with teenagers ranging from 11 to 13 years old. This one year experience includes three phases.
We are a non-denominational Christian organization that embraces a belief in Christ and a devotion to God, family and country. Our community stewardship distinguishes itself by a bold spirit of leadership, innovation, creative partnerships, a desire for collaborative partnership, and collaborative solutions to community challenges as they relate to at-risk teens and their families.
We assist teens and their families to have a reconciled relationship with God, family and community through Jesus Christ. We mobilize local networks of churches, schools and community organizations to help each teen and family find needed resources and relationships. We use the natural setting and our therapeutic approach to focus on life-changing decisions. charitable organization
