An Outdoors Ministry to Troubled Youth

"This is not your typical sit-back-and-relax counseling session.

"With waves splashing up the sides of their yellow rafts, 10 youngsters wearing black wet suits and life jackets paddle down a swift and choppy Spokane River, laughing and smiling as they go.

"For these young rafters, most of them from disadvantaged backgrounds, this is a day they'll never forget. And Ryan Kerrigan, who helped organize this rafting trip, hopes it's a day that will be a turning point in their lives.

"This river adventure, lending brightness to an overcast day, is about learning life lessons, such as the importance of cooperation - and about simply having fun."

 A recent Christian Science Monitor article profiled Mr. Kerrigan and his Peak 7 Adventures ministry.
