Developing Leaders Through Adventure & Service
We help people grow in how they lead through shared challenges, meaningful service, and guided reflection. We partner with churches to connect leadership development with following Jesus, and with schools, teams and corporate groups to build practical skills for working well together.
Following Jesus shapes how we lead
Jesus shows us a way of leading rooted in love for God and service to others. As we grow in following Him, we learn to take responsibility, put others first, and help people around us grow.
At AdventureServe, Christian leadership development is part of discipleship. Adventure and service give your group opportunities to put what they believe into practice, then reflect on what those experiences reveal about their faith and character.
Our Programs
-
The Wilderness Adventure Program invites participants to deepen their faith, build lasting connections, and challenge themselves in the great outdoors. Through activities like hiking, rock climbing, rappelling, canoeing, caving, solo reflection, and challenge courses, individuals grow in trust, resilience, and appreciation for God’s creation.
These trips go beyond personal growth, incorporating acts of service through creation care projects that benefit local communities and intentional opportunities for participants to serve one another. Every aspect of the program is designed to foster spiritual growth, teamwork, and compassion while embracing the beauty and challenges of the natural world.

Starting at $80 per day per person.

The Service Adventure Program invites participants to embody the hands and feet of Jesus through meaningful service in urban and rural communities. Partnering with local organizations, participants engage in hands-on projects and relational service opportunities, building skills in teamwork, compassion, and faith-filled action.
The journey is as unique as each participant's walk with God—full of surprises and moments for spiritual growth. Through practices like prayer, solitude, and creative approaches to scripture, participants explore the mysteries of faith in transformative ways.
Each trip also includes a signature adventure activity, fostering deeper connections with God and unity within the group. The Service Adventure Program is a call to serve, grow, and discover the joy of living out faith in action.
