Since 1981, we've conducted more than 32,000 retreats, have done much outreach and discipleship through our Discipleship Teams (formerly known as Parish/School Teams), evangelized through youth events such as Lifeline, PETRUS, and Discipleship Week, and more. With the addition of 6 new NET teams in the past 5 years (from 10 to 16 teams), we've been able to reach out to nearly 100,000 youth each year for the past few years. We credit much of this to our generous donors who have helped us expand our ministry, and of course to God, who had bigger plans for what started out as a small and humble ministry in Minnesota.
