5-Days of Purpose Life Adventure Week
"What is My Purpose Here on Earth?"

This is an incredible multi-activity trip to a beautiful location – with a purpose to give a new insight into your plan and purpose for being here on Earth! "5-Days of Purpose" will get each in your group re-charged in their relationship with God and in their commitment to the great purposes He has created each individual for.

"5-Days of Purpose" explores the five reasons why God created each of us and the answer to " What on Earth Am I Here For?". This trip to the Colorado Rocky Mountains also combines an incredible 7-days and 6-nights in Nature doing a combination of rappelling, rockclimbing, overnight high country backpacking, incredible dayhikes and options for horseback riding, canoeing and mountain biking.
