We teach our teens to become active, valuable, and Christ-following members of the community.
The teenage experience has many forks in the road where heroic or destructive decisions are made. It is important that the youth have guidance to help them hear and obey Jesus Christ during this critical phase of life.
The teen program is a place where the teens have fun and can experience the world in a different light through games, hands-on activities, conversation, and trips/opportunities throughout their neighborhood and beyond. This all gives the teens an opportunity to learn about Christ’s love for them, and his plans to prosper them and build them up to be leaders in their community. The teens meet Tuesday and Thursday during the school year.

This summer career readiness and discipleship program allows the youth to gain job skills and experience with a biblical foundation. Teens learn the importance of keeping Christ at the center of their journey into adulthood through daily worship and devotions, as well as trips to Christian summer camps that present the gospel in an engaging and relevant way.
Teen summer camp runs for seven weeks in June and July.
By working with ASIP the youth learn the value of being a good steward of their finances, creating a budget, and the importance of giving and saving. Purchasing snow cones from our youth enables them to make honest money, which enables them to meet their needs/wants in a way that teaches stewardship, empowerment, money management, and service.
We set up shop at street corners, BBQ restaurants, church picnics, employee appreciation days, neighborhood block parties...even weddings. All proceeds are paid to our youth employees who have made some amazing and ordinary choices with their paychecks.
Some income has been used for snacks and sneakers (of course, they’re teenagers!), but many kids help out with family expenses or sibling needs, as well as purchasing their own school supplies and uniforms.
Where will we be serving?
Some of our happy customers!
