The 3:23 Team

Our mission is the following: To share the gospel of Jesus Christ through affordable youth programs in a safe environment. We offer homeschool programs (Bible and athletic enrichment) and extracurriculars, including basketball, cross-country, volleyball, guitar/ukulele lessons, and Art lessons.      

Why 3:23?  Our name comes from Colossians 3:23, which reads, “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not men.”
