Join us at our Aurora Based Community Ministries!

This Aurora Based Community Parent Life ministry meets expectant and parenting teens at New Legacy High School and in the community and hosts small groups every Monday from 4:30-6:30pm at New Legacy High School throughout the school year.  Other special activities are available during the summer.

Meeting expectant and parenting teens where they are in the community, Parent Life is an intentional relational ministry driven by one-on-one mentorship and weekly small groups.

We serve teens through community activities and individual relationships. We serve as Christ-centered mentors, advocates, and even as their coaches through our sports programs. Our trained ministry leaders walk alongside these young people and serve them through their day to day lives.
