Recreation - Education - Support - Training

Our goal is always to help young people grow.

Welcome to the digital home of REST Ministries, a non-profit organization serving today’s youth.

From hiking trips, to speaking events, to training youth leaders, and anything else God calls us to, our mission is to invest in the physical, mental, and spiritual health of today’s youth. We believe real wealth is health. The wise aren’t always wealthy, but their lives are healthy.

Our work is to creatively Recreate, Educate, Support, and Train so that young people can know and grow into who God created them to be.

Our Ministries

Outdoors Ministry

Studies prove spending time outside is good for everyone’s health…

With a time of quiet reflection and spiritual truth built into every trip, we provide guided adventures where youth get to participate in outdoor activities like hiking, fishing, kayaking and more.

Podcast Ministry

Learn how to become a disciple with us…

We produce and publish a podcast called the Properly Yoked Podcast to help disciples continue to be disciples. This pod is “where we believe in Jesus, walk with Jesus, learn from Jesus, and obey Jesus together because we are loved by Jesus.

Mentorship Ministry

We were designed to connect with, learn from, and encourage each other along the way…

We believe one way to love is to turn around and help someone coming after you. That’s what we do in this mentor program. This ministry exists to encourage and equip the next generation through healthy adult-youth relationships.

Bible & Book Ministry

Bibles and books. That’s what we give out to those who need them.

Before this ministry began, giving the gift of the Word has been a great joy and desire of ours. Now, we stay stocked with Bibles and helpful books as best we can. We want to be ready to put a helpful word at any moments notice in the hands of a young person.
