Our Focus
Introducing young people to Jesus at pivotal moments
YFC is a movement that reaches young people everywhere with the hope of Christ. We work with the local church and other like-minded 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.

"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.
Kevin Post, Interim Executive Director of Capital District YFC
"Geared to the Times, Anchored to the Rock"
The culture around us may keep changing but we remain rooted in Christ and our ministry reflects the foundation of the Gospel. The teenagers of this age just like the teens of past generations need to place their hope and salvation in Jesus. Our board, staff and volunteers remain committed to sharing the truth of God’s Word and helping teens apply it to their lives.

"We listen and love on kids"
Watching God completely change a kid's life is the heartbeat of what we do. We listen and love on kids and take opportunities to point them to Jesus so they can experience his overwhelming love.
