EMBRACE of Story

Mid-Valley Youth For Christ is a chapter within the national and global Youth For Christ movement that began in 1944 with Billy Graham, hosting evangelistic rallies. In the 1960’s Youth for Christ leaders began ministry on school campuses, and over time, began ministry in communities as well. Today, there are over 130 Youth for Christ chapters spread across the country, partnering with local church and like-minded para-church ministries, all with the goal of building relationships that will result in authentic Christ-sharing opportunities with youth ranging 11-19 years of age.

Our Mission Statement

Mid-Valley Youth For Christ’s Juvenile Justice Ministry exists to create a faith-based continuity of care model geared toward fostering holistic connection and secure relationship with young people during any point of contact with the juvenile justice system. As a member chapter in a national organization (YFC/USA), our collective mission is to come alongside young people in what it means to journey with Jesus; balancing the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of life. Locally, our mission is to bring hope to the hopeless – by building relationships with youth who are incarcerated in short and long-term facilities.
