“The mission of the soil to soul is to help teenagers and post-high school students transition into adulthood. Therefore, the primary objective is to help young men and women experience human flourising and fullness of life necessary for the preservation and welfare of themselves, their family andd their future families. This initiative is not intended to be a quick fix but an important step towards discovering the truth, goodnes, and beauty of god's greatest creation.”

“The meaning and purpose of our learning and working at the s2s is directed towards building and supporting the family and community with intentionality and skill set development towards private ownership of property and means of production which supports a resilient home economy. The varied and broad experiences gained from s2s will open new and purposeful pathways leading to a willful wonder for learning. On the job training, vocational and technical training, and or college becomes a desirable and logical next step in the student's education. All of which opens the door to living the adventure of the theo drama - by doing god's will. Which supports the sacrament of marriage and children, the fruits of god's creation and his covenant relationship with man. S2s will do this by providing hands-on experience and spiritual, intellectual, emotional and physical guidance. Each of the different curriculum options listed below will follow the "see 1, do 1, and teach 1" methodology. Failure, by the very nature of this approach, becomes a tremendous teacher as we continually strive to be life time learners by starting and finishing daily tasks. The s2s curriculum is designed for full engagement by each student which will require complete participation and accountability on their part. The s2s is an independent self-funded program that desires to partner with families, schools, and our church communities. Fees and or tuition will be determined based on individual needs of each entity and the type of curriculum that best addresses the identified needs. The foundation of the s2s curriculum is built on the following four main questions while examining and experiencing each of them from the biblical worldview. 1.who am i? 2.what is the meaning of my life? 3.to what end do i do what i do? 4.what is my highest good? Participatory learning by each student will be rooted in the apostolic proclamation of salvation through jesus christ. It is through the lens of the 4 components of the kerygma that the s2s students will experience life from the biblical world view. The 4 components are as follows: 1.created - the goodness of creation: why is there something rather than nothing? 2.captured - sin and its consequences: why is everything so obviously messed up? 3.rescued - god's response to our sin: what if anything, has god done about it? 4.response - our response to what god has done for us: if god has done something, how should i respond? (fr. John riccardo book rescued) unique components of the soil to soul curriculum at the trj ranch s2s will teach safe practices and basic skill set development in the following areas. The plan is to be able to do each of the proposed curriculum individually and or group them together based on the needs. S2s ministry understands that this will be, for the most part, the first time the students will be exposed to this type of learning environment and by design differs from a traditional classroom setting. Our goal with each component of the curriculum is that s2s becomes a starting point for each student to discover something new and tangible that awakens new experiences, learned behavior, and skill set developments. All of which will provides meaning and purpose to their lives. The agriculture, tree harvesting/sawmilling and carpentry modules will be vertically integrated.”
