About Us | Agape Christian Boarding School for Boys

OVER 20 YEARS OF CARE FOR TROUBLED TEENS

Our Founders, James and Kathy Clemensen, started Agape in April of 1990. Since then, they have seen many troubled and rebellious boys turn around their lives, become drug free, and receive a quality high school education. They have worked hard to make Agape's therapeutic program an affordable, low cost school for the parents of troubled teens.

Testimonials

Coming to the realization that in order to save my young son's life, I needed to send him away, was the most difficult and painful decision I have ever made. After researching everything from hospitals to military schools, I finally called Agape and truly felt a sense of peace and resolve that Agape was our answer. My first thought in the morning and last thought at night is of my son, and though my heart aches that I can't see and speak with him every day, I am comforted by knowing he is safe. He is learning to respect others, himself and growing in Christ. He is finally succeeding as a student and been awarded opportunities because he has been able to earn trust. Agape's campus is first rate and the staff truly love and are committed to the success of the boys in their care.
-Laura (Parent)

One of the places I love to travel to and be a part of the ministry is at the Agape Baptist Church and boarding school. It is literally changing lives and is a great place to be. I heartily recommend it to any parent who has a boy that needs help.
-Dr. Gary L. Mann (Evangelist)

Agape helped us with an out-of-control son; we had nowhere else to turn. Agape's prices are better than many other so-called teen boarding programs. Our son is a better person today because of Agape. He never would have graduated from school, and possibly wouldn't have ever become a Christian without his time there.
