ABOUT YFC:
Our work at Youth For Christ exists in the overlap of God's story, our story and the story of a young person. At the core of our ministry, we meet kids at pivotal moments to build lasting relationships in which God can work.
Through our City Life programs, we provide a safe, fun place for teens where they will be accepted, encouraged to make good decisions, and provided positive opportunities to become all that God has called them to be.
