Youth for Christ seeks to empower young people spiritually, socially, and emotionally and connect them to Jesus. The principal way we do this is through building authentic, Christ-centered mentoring relationships with youth. “Mentoring, at its core, guarantees young people that there is someone who cares about them, assures them they are not alone in dealing with day-to-day challenges and makes them feel like they matter” (1). At YFC, we walk alongside youth so they know they have people in their corner, and so they can find and know their heavenly father.
A Different Approach to Giving Tuesday
Moving Towards Jesus
Recently, at YFC we’ve been putting action steps into place to build partnerships with local churches to start what we’re calling a “warm handoff.” Meaning, as youth are either phasing out of our programs due to age or are ready to be plugged into a church, we’re working towards connecting those specific youth to churches who are ready and willing to come alongside them and disciple them further.
Who do you Follow?
YFC Camp: Kara
YFC Camp: Ben
Ben grew up knowing about God, but his faith was challenged and stretched when he faced an unforeseen circumstance in his life. He was dealing with anger, pain, and questioning why God would allow something so tragic to happen to his family. He started to make decisions that were leading him more and more down a path away from God.
BUT GOD…

More than a Campaign
Young people are craving authenticity and to feel known. But the world they are living in is pulling them apart - digitally, socially, politically, spiritually. Instead of feeling known, they are feeling detached, isolated and anxious. This season is no exception. We’re more divided, isolated, and overwhelmed with issues than ever.
