Building Authentic Relationships
YFC pursues young people across Tuscaloosa to build authentic Christ-sharing relationships. Through large group, small group and one on one meetings we point students towards Jesus. We go where ever young people are found every day of the week. Today more than ever teens need trusting adult relationships.

"This is our pivotal moment to serve the church"
This is our pivotal moment to serve the church by creatively re-imagining youth ministry yet again. I believe the cultural conditions are right for us to experience the greatest youth revival our generation has ever seen. God has given us the right team to do this—and His hand is clearly on our mission.
Andrew, local 7th grader
"It's a safe place to talk about God and who Jesus is"
Campus Life is unique. It's not like any other clubs or groups I am a part of. It's a safe place to talk about God and who Jesus is. I have decided to give my life to Him.
Bre, Student
"I think that I should give my life over to you."
Dear Jesus, I don’t know what to do, but I really think that I should give my life over to you. Even though I don’t know you that well, I willingly do it. I’m also learning more about you and I’m really grateful that I’m doing this. There was a point in my life that I never really even thought about you, cause what other kids my age would say. When I got to this camp it really changed my perspective of you. I know you sent me here just for this and I’m thankful and ready to give my life over to you. You were always there but I never realized it, and now I do.
