Mission & Purpose
Our Mission:
To encourage and empower sportsmen, their families and friends to discover and develop a relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ in the context of the outdoor adventure.

To provide opportunities for men and their families to enjoy outdoor activities with other sportsmen and connect with individuals no matter where one stands in his relationship with Jesus Christ and grow in one's spiritual walk through these connections.
Core Values
(The 4 “Ships” of Faith)
Worship
We believe that every outdoor experience should in some form, be a spiritual act of worship. This can include praising God for His great outdoors or praying within our outdoor experience.
(Psalm 99:9—Exalt the LORD our God and worship at his holy mountain, for the LORD our God is holy.)
Stewardship
We believe that as followers of Jesus Christ, we should be the example of good stewardship in the outdoors. This includes serving in the outdoors and being conservation minded.
(Genesis 1:26 - Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.")
Relationship
We believe that our outdoor experiences should be centered in having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. We also believe that our outdoor experiences should promote relationship with other sportsmen.
(Proverbs 27:17— As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.)
Discipleship
We believe that in our outdoor experiences we should disciple and encourage sportsmen in their faith and walk with the Lord.
(Matthew 28:18-20— 18Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.")
