Our Identity
Youth for Christ is a missionary movement entrusted with a global vision and committed to a mission of youth evangelism, discipleship, social involvement and leadership development.
Our Vision
Our vision is that every young person in every people group in every nation has the opportunity to make an informed decision to be a follower of Jesus Christ and become part of a local church.
Our Mission
To participate in the body of Christ in responsible evangelism of youth, presenting them with the person, work and teachings of Christ and discipling them into local churches.
Our Core Values
- EVANGELISM & DISCIPLESHIP
- We are committed to take the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all young people and always seek to do so with urgency, using the most culturally acceptable presentations. We are further committed to provide a ministry of discipleship for each new believer, and to work in partnership with others who desire to accomplish the same mission.
- SCRIPTURE
- We are committed to the Word of God as the foundation and final authority for life and ministry. We discipline ourselves to study it diligently, apply it daily, and teach its truth to young people.
- PRAYER & FASTING

- CHURCH
- Believing that the Church is the expression of the Body of Christ, we are committed to the Church as God's chosen instrument in fulfilling the Great Commission of Jesus Christ.
- PEOPLE
- We are committed to people. We believe that young people, volunteers, board members, ministry partners, staff and their families are important first as individuals, and all are vital in their fulfilment of our mission.
- MOBILISATION
