2023 IN REVIEW

Key Results

Focusing on how to use the gifts we’ve received to serve others (see the metaphysical theme from 1 Peter on p. 2), our staff witnessed spiritual growth among participants and overall success in our 2023 fiscal year. The key results reported here reflect improvement over the previous year, all while navigating changes in leadership, business operations and programming.

After each program, we ask participants to rate its impact in providing them with the opportunity to deepen their relationship with God.

Scale: 1 (not at all) to 5 (highly)

“Camp is one of the things I look forward to all year long. I always leave camp with a closer relationship to God and a deeper understanding of Christian Science. This year especially I’ve had great Sunday Schools. I’ve never felt more enlightened.” – A/U Ranches Youth Camper

Nurturing Stakeholders

After each program or connection point, we ask stakeholders to rate the level at which their interactions with Adventure Unlimited made them feel loved and valued.

“It was a joy to be around Christian Science young people and to learn how they are navigating their 20s with a focus on God. The camaraderie and spiritual support I felt on this trip made me grateful to be a Christian Scientist, and I am planning on attending future DiscoveryBound events.” – DB Outreach 20s/30s participant on Iceland trip

Serving Our Participants

Everything we do at Adventure Unlimited is designed to open “windows to God” for our community. The staff, volunteers and donors who support A/U Ranches and DiscoveryBound participants are motivated by this mission of love.
