Local church to launch Trail Life USA unit

Refuge-Ministries will be chartering a Trail Life USA Unit. There will be an informational and recruitment meeting at the Copperas Cove Campus, 2602 S. FM 116, at 6:30 p.m. on Monday, September 14th.

This troop is open to all boys ages 5 to 18 in the Copperas Cove, Killeen, Ft. Hood and surrounding areas. Trail Life USA (TLUSA) is a Christian Outdoor adventure program that emphasizes and teaches biblical moral values and requires all adult members to agree with, sign, and abide by the Trail Life USA Trinitarian Statement of Faith and the Statement of Values. The program is unapologetically Christian. However, the program is designed and intended to be presented without being “churchy” or “religious,” focusing on outdoor adventure, character, and leadership development.

The program also involves camping, hiking, and other outdoor activities help build deep relationships and provide a context for leadership, problem solving, conflict resolution and character building. Trail Life USA will be operated and supported by volunteers at every level.

Trail Life USA is committed to the health, welfare, and safety of youth, volunteers, staff and employees. Physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health are integrated the program.

When there are enough volunteer leaders with background checks, registered, and trained and in place the ministry will finish the chartering process. The troop will meet at the Copperas Cove campus on Monday nights from 6:30 to 8 p.m., with the goal to begin meetings in October.
