Our main purpose is: “To raise up a generation of leaders who are known for their love for Christ and their love for kids.”
Our goal continues to be the development of quality leaders in each FSU country who can effectively evangelize and disciple young people of their country. Currently there are over 60 full-time national staff serving in 13 countries of the FSU and approximately 600 trained volunteer national leaders serving young people. Last summer we were able to take 4,700 kids to a summer camp where they heard the Good News of Jesus Christ.
This Young Life region exists to provide leadership for the Young Life areas that comprise it. Although Young Life exists in communities that are different from one another, Young Life's purpose is the same: We want to give kids hope for the future.
