(AP) - A Christian organization called TeenPact is taking 63 Christian teenagers to Washington this week to teach them how to impact the culture and the nation.
They plan to hold a pro-life news conference on Capitol Hill, work alongside Christian lobbyists at the Family Research Council and visit the National Press Club.
Asher Bontreger, an 18-year-old student from Rensselaer, Indiana, says he wants to challenge his generation to "fight for what is morally right in our nation."
Kirstin Roseveare, an 18-year-old from Colorado, says Christian teens also can make a difference by living up to their principles and explaining them to other young people.
TeenPact's Web site says it "brings kids closer to Jesus Christ, makes them better leaders and positions them to impact public policy."
