In 2008, MSCC helped support Sean and Mary Campbell to serve in Germany for a two year period to military kids. In their role, they build friendship with kids that are at risk in many ways. Through their example and caring, they have been available to kids as they take their first steps in discovering who Jesus is and how they can also have a personal relationship with Him.
Although military kids walk the same school hallways as other teens, they live in a much different world. For them, being called a military "brat" is like being called a "brother" or "friend." Military brats attend four to as many as six different schools between sixth-grade and their senior year. Many move to foreign countries. Most are likely to live with only one parent while patiently enduring a six to 18 month deployment of their other parent. In their world, uncertainty has become the only constant.
- Recognizing that "reaching every kid, everywhere" includes those on military installations, Military Young Life has been ministering to military kids for almost 50 years.
- Serving in the United States and 10 European and Asian countries, Military Young Life walks the halls with military teens and their families to help them face the unique and challenging aspects of military life.
