WE HAVE A PROGRAM FOR YOU!

Adventure Unlimited provides enriching activities for Christian Scientists of all ages and their families and friends of all faiths. Our programs serve each individual as a child of God, supporting their spiritual growth and healing. In fact, the practical and effective application of Christian Science is as much a part of our mission today as it was when John "Cap" and Marianne Andrews founded Adventure Unlimited in 1955.

Whether it’s at the A/U Ranches and its 100 Elk Outdoor Center or in DiscoveryBound Outreach, National Leadership Council, and Compass programs, our vision is for life-changing spiritual growth through joyful adventures in an environment where Christian Science is lived.

Supporting Experiences That Change Lives

"

Our four daughters benefited from summers at the A/U Ranches for years, thanks to generous campership donors. Our youngest daughter benefited from the DB NLC program and continues to feel that support. We plan to give back so others can reap these loving life-changing experiences.
