That’s a wrap! 🎬✨

Just like that, the year has come to an end for the Class of 2025.
Last night we celebrated everything our students have accomplished. We premiered their short films, laughed and cried together, and reflected on both the beautiful moments and the tough ones.

Most of all, we’re grateful to the Lord for being with us through it all. His grace has carried this team in so many ways!

Class of 2025 — GO FOR IT!
We’re going to miss you, but we couldn’t be more proud.

Keep an eye on our social pages — their short films will be going LIVE over the next two weeks! 🎥🔥

Final week with our 2025 students, so we took some time away for a connect and debrief 🦒

It was such a great experience getting out into the wild together — braaiing, fishing, and sharing plenty of good moments. And tomorrow… we GRADUATE! 🥳

It is with deep heartache that we share that one of our students, Nathan Putzier, passed away on Friday afternoon after being involved in a tragic car accident. Our hearts are torn — grieving the loss of a close classmate, yet holding fast to the hope we have in knowing that he loved God, lived to serve Him, and is now in glory in His presence.

Nathan was truly the glue in our team. He was always joking around, bringing joy into every moment, and drawing us together through his fun. He lived lightly, served with humility, and cared deeply for the people around him.

Our hearts go out to his family and to everyone who knew and loved this incredible young man during this difficult time. ❤️

All three films will premiere at graduation on the 27th of November, with online releases to follow in the weeks after — so stay tuned! 👀
