If you have any thoughts about the new system, please don’t hesitate to contact me and let me know.

Finally, we are so thankful for each family that financially supports this ministry.

You can mail your donation to TeenPact, PO Box 9 , Jefferson , GA 30549 or log into our website and click “donate. Thank you for partnering with us!
