The Lord's Boot Camp
TMI's main, and longest running, Boot Camp is based out of Merritt Island Florida. Boot Camp is a two week training period in which teams learn basic construction and evangelism skills, as well as cooperation and teamwork. The idea is to present a simulation of the circumstances they may encounter overseas. Boot Camp has to be as primitive as the most primitive teams. The aim of Teen Missions is to train tomorrows missionaries today and provide teenagers with a way to serve God now. "Let no man despise thy youth" 1 Timothy 4:12.
