The mission

What this organization describes

We see the hope and potential in every young person

The Youth for Christ (YFC) national movement began in 1944 under the prominent leadership of the Reverend Billy Graham. Youth for Christ, Fort Wayne Area opened its doors seven years later in 1951. Since that time, the Northern Indiana chapter has grown into the largest of almost 200 ministry centers throughout the United States. YFC reaches young people everywhere, working together with the local church and other likeminded partners to raise up lifelong followers of Jesus who lead by their godliness in lifestyle, devotion to the Word of God and prayer, passion for sharing the love of Christ and commitment to social involvement. Youth for Christ Northern Indiana youth professionals currently serve the students and administrations in 13 high schools, 15 middle schools, two juvenile institutions, and four government-subsidized neighborhoods throughout Allen, Huntington, and Whitley Counties.
