The mission of CTO North Carolina Manteo Chapter is to guide the next generation to Christ through the outdoors. I remember when I first gave my heart and life to Jesus while I was living in Boone, NC finishing up college at Appalachian State. It seemed that the Lord led me outdoors and for hours each day I would hike the trails, fish the streams, and just commune with Him openly and honestly. I encountered the living God daily who began to change me from the inside out by His truly amazing grace.
Now after time of intimate relationship, adventures, and transformation, it's time to give back to the next generation. While hiking those woods years ago, I had visions of one day leading young boys and men into the outdoors to encounter God in similar ways. So after meeting North Carolina State Director Mike Johnson and hearing about the ministry something just went off on the inside of me and the visions God had given me years ago are now exploding forth.
