Young Life is an incredible mission that has been in Conway since 1965. Since then teenagers have been hearing and responding to the love of Jesus Christ. Our mission is simple we are dedicated to introducing adolescents to Jesus Christ and helping them grow in their faith. As simple as that sounds, the action of loving the lost is not that easy. Our staff and volunteers spend countless hours each week going to where kids are, spending time with them in their world. This can often be very intimidating, if not just down right scary. Our leaders go to schools, sporting events, concert venues-where ever kids are that's where we want to be! Earning the right to share with them our lives! I Thessalonians2:8 says, "We loved you so much that we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God but our lives as well, because you had become so dear to us". This is what our leaders live out every day with their middle school and high school friends. They are loving them into the kingdom if you will. I feel that now more than ever, as a body of believers, we have to reach out into the world with the love of Christ! May God bless you as you go out to love those around you.
