Youth Ministry
After more than 20 years in full-time ministry, worship leader and minister Karen Wheaton returned to her hometown of Hamilton, Ala., and was struck by the immense apathy she witnessed in the community's youth. God prompted her to get involved, so she began pouring into teenagers through The Ramp, a ministry she founded to awaken a generation to the purposes of God.
Through conferences, a school of ministry, special events, broadcast programs, a church and a weekly gathering, The Ramp lives out its threefold mission to awaken, equip and send teens—the last of which sets it apart from similar organizations engaging students.
"If the impact of The Ramp stays only in Hamilton, Ala., then we are failing in our mission," Wheaton says. "God's heart beats for an entire generation, not just for a remnant or a select few. God's heart is a global heart, and we have a responsibility to send students into all the world."
The Ramp church provides those on the local level with opportunities to engage in worship and teaching on Sunday mornings and Wednesday nights.
