Quick Guide to Starting Your Own Families of the Frontier Tribe
Starting a Families of the Frontier (FOF) tribe is about reclaiming family time, learning together, and building a community that shares skills, faith, and life.
Families of the Frontier strengthens families through hands-on skills, outdoor life, and Christian formation in a family-first setting.
We provide a structured way for families to grow together by learning practical skills,
practicing seasonal rhythms, developing character, and sharing faith.
Families of the Frontier gives parents and children opportunities to learn, work, and worship together. Our programs focus on skill, challenge, and Christian rhythm:
gardening, food preservation, herbal work, firecraft, and other hands-on lessons
camping trips, hikes, bushcraft, and activities that build resilience and strengthen family bonds
guides for celebrating core feasts, marking milestones, and restoring Christian patterns at home
age-appropriate challenges that help children and parents mark important spiritual and developmental milestones
structured paths for families to practice, achieve, and celebrate mastery together
devotions, prayer, and reflection woven into every gathering
Why It Matters
Families thrive when faith, work, and community are shared. Modern life has removed
the rhythms and practices that once strengthened Christian households. Families of the
Frontier restores those rhythms.
We help families:
Through structured lessons, seasonal celebrations, rites of passage, and skill badges, families build competence, faith, and unity. Our goal is strong families walking together in skill and in Christ.
If you want a community that values Christian formation, practical skill, outdoor challenge, and shared family growth, you belong here.
Families of the Frontier began with one conviction. Parents and children grow strongest when they learn, work, and worship together.
We created Families of the Frontier to give families a clear framework for restoring Christian rhythms. Prayer, skill, reflection, challenge, and celebration are at the heart of every gathering. This is not a drop-off program. Every family participates fully and safely.
