Young Life is a Christian ministry that reaches out to middle school, high school, and college students in all 50 of the United States and in more than 100 countries around the world.
Since 1941, the mission of Young Life is to introduce adolescents to Jesus Christ and help them grow in their faith.
Young Life accomplishes their mission by praying for young people; going where kids are and building personal relationships with them; earning the right to share the Good News of Jesus Christ; providing fun, adventurous, life-changing and skill-building experiences; inviting kids to personally respond to the Good News and walking in friendship with them regardless of their response; and working in community alongside like-minded adults (volunteer leaders, committee members, donors and staff).
Young Life doesn’t start with a program.  It starts with adults who are concerned enough about kids to go to them, on their turf and in their culture, building bridges of authentic friendship.
