Summer Camp Gives Youth Time and Space to Think
Teenagers are very special people. Unfortunately, many live in an environment of poverty, broken homes, negative peer pressure, drug and alcohol abuse, physical and mental abuse, gang influences and declining moral values.
With the ever-increasing violence, financial struggles, stresses, and fatherless homes in our communities have had their negative influence in shaping the lives of such youth.
We here at Morning Star, strive to restore character, hope and a future into this young generation. Through a variety of free programs, these teens are given help and shown that there is a way out of their circumstances.
At MSO camps, teens can get away from that environment. In a peaceful, natural setting near Bear Valley, California, teens have time and space to reflect on their lives, find out what kind of person they are or would like to become, and to think about the direction of the paths they are taking.
Through MSO, teens come to realize that they are special people and, with proper guidance, that they can have happy and fulfilling lives. They leave camp with a new start and hopes and dreams for a brighter and more promising future.
