Tod Bush Leadership Center

Tod came to Christ through the ministry of Young Life when he was in high school. He remained connected to Young Life for his entire life and God used it to transform his heart as he built relationships with kids. He served as a Young Life Leader and Commitee Chair in the Waco, Richardson, and Dallas, Texas areas. Tod always felt that the way to communicate about Christ was by building relationships and it was his heart's desire for this ministry to flourish. He knew from working with Young Life Staff that they need access to a community that provides encouragement, resources and training to help them keep their ministry fresh and to equip them to minister effectively to kids growing up in an ever changing culture. He never wanted to hear that a staff person was no longer in ministry because of burnout!


From his college days with Young Life, Tod had formed a life-long friendship with Brian Summerall who has served on Young Life Staff for more than two decades. His current position is as Director of Ministry Strategy for Young Life. Brian's vision for a uniqe location to provide Young Life Staff, volunteers and Committee Members a place to come together for intensive ministry training gave birth to the Tod Bush Leadership Center.


Tod's family and friends dedicated the new Tod Bush Leadership Center on November 19, 2017. Since the doors opened in September of 2017, hundreds of Young Life Staff and Volunteers have attended training events at the Center. The Center also houses thirteen Young Life Staff who use it as their "home base" for ministry. We look forward to seeing all that God will do in this special place.


No doubt, Tod would love seeing people being trained with such intentionality and exellence. The purpose of the Tod Bush Center is a reflection of his heartbeat as expressed in his final journal entry: Love God. Do Good. Love One Another.

Thoughts From Tod's Friends

By Brian Summerall


I spent Christmas Eve, not in the way I expected last night. My friend, Tod Bush, passed away a couple of days ago, While his brain showed no activity, his body was kept alive on a respirator for the last two days. So yesterday evening I went up to the hospital for one last earthly goodbye and to try to find some closure.


What I found instead was hope.
