Rooted and Ready
Growing deep roots in God’s truth, exploring cultures and gaining the courage to embrace change.
As a parent, you long to see your child thrive and grow at every stage.
During seasons of uncertainty, unknowns, and unfamiliarity, it is important for them to feel secure and better informed about their role as Third Culture Kids (TCKs).
TCKs need to know that they are unique but not alone in their experiences. We encourage them to see their lives as an opportunity to explore cultures, overcome challenges, and make new friends.
Each course mirrors the adult curriculum but is tailored to be age-appropriate so that families can connect and have meaningful conversations together.
Every day includes Bible study, games, crafts from other cultures, art, music, food, and plenty of discussions about confidently navigating life as a TCK.
