Every day at community centers, high schools, middle schools, juvenile institutions, coffee shops, and local hangouts, YFC staff and volunteers meet with young people who need Jesus. Our focus as a movement is on multiplying fruitful and sustainable ministry sites across the Chicagoland area.
The many counties represented in our chapter have over a million students from 6th-12th grade. Our vision is to reach every kid, everywhere in our region with the life-changing message of Jesus Christ.
YFC reaches young people everywhere, working together with the local church and other like-minded partners to raise up lifelong followers of Jesus who lead by their godliness in lifestyle, devotion to prayer and the Word of God, passion for sharing the love of Christ and commitment to social involvement.
We deliberately engage lots of Christians to intercede on behalf of the ministry site.
We consistently pursue lost kids & engage them in life-long relationships with Jesus.
We accurately handle Biblical truth, regularly coaching kids to apply it in their lives.
We intentionally work together with churches, agencies and other partners to provide sustainable youth ministry.
We strategically develop leaders to reach young people from every people group.
Throughout YFC's history there has been an unwavering commitment to youth evangelism and biblical Christianity. YFC strives to both demonstrate and communicate this message of hope, grace and love in a variety of different cultural settings, and always pursuing teens in personal relationships. Your prayers and financial support continue to help change the lives of young people… one at a time.
