Join Team
Young people who come through Trojan are equipped with skills and training that prepares them for endeavors such as University, work, family or travel. We help you identify your gifts and talents and give you opportunities to develop them. You learn to work in a team and develop team responsibilities like organizing for camps, outreaches and conferences. As the year is built on Christian formation you will develop a sustainable prayer life while also developing your social skills, and confidence through presentation of dramas and public speaking. Trojan is intense and challenging and therefore helps to build self discipline and character. The year is varied and exciting.
