Our Mission

We share our parent ministry’s vision of “knowing Him and making Him known”. We do this by promoting positive growth in the mental, physical, spiritual and social-emotional health of young people in our community.

Our Methods

Growth | Character | Self-Discipline

Mission Wrestling is a youth ministry. We use the discipline of athletic training and competition as an environment for providing safe relationships, community, and a true sense of belonging.  Through training and mentoring, participants improve their work ethic while increasing their capacity to understand and manage emotions, reactions, and relationships. We encourage parent participation and provide mentoring and resources intended to improve family life.

Parent Involvement

• Mission Wrestling strongly encourages parent involvement in our program.
• We have learned that reaching a single person in a family can positively impact the entire family unit.
• Our staff models a loving and disciplined family environment.
• We offer mentoring to parents along with students in areas such as nutrition, parenting skills, and spiritual growth.
