CAMPUS LIFE

CAMPUS LIFE is a program for high school students. Campus life leaders come alongside youth; meeting them where they are to build authentic relationships and introduce them to Christ.  Weekly meetings provide great moments of connection, fun activities, lively discussions and a spiritual and character challenge.

 

We think the world of youth and we believe they deserve to know what life can hold for them.  Through a holistic approach, Campus Life helps students as they wrestle with difficult issues;  helping them to realize a Christ-centered life provides balance mentally, physically, spiritually, and socially.

​

Campus Life every week during the school year
7:00 - 9:00 PM

Deer River, Grand Rapids, Hill City, Bigfork, Greenway

JUVENILE JUSTICE MINISTRY

YFC’s justice-focused ministries establish Christ-centered, mentoring relationships with youth both in preventative and rehabilitative ways. Mentors come alongside youth during their time incarcerated to build relationships in order to show them their identity, freedom, value, and purpose in Christ and to equip them for new life beyond incarceration. Preventatively, mentors engage youth and empower them spiritually, socially, and emotionally.
