Opportunities for Teens
Christian Youth In Action:
Christian Youth In Action® (CYIA™) is a program designed to train young people, just like you, to effectively teach children about God. You’ll received excellent training from experienced staff where you will learn to present the Gospel clearly on a child’s level, counsel a child for salvation and lead a dynamic club ministry for kids.
After training, you will serve in your local community and teach clubs at various locations, or at one of our two camp locations, with a team of other young people. Many of the children attending clubs have never heard of Jesus, have not attended church and are facing a hopeless eternity. You can bring the transfoming power of the gospel to them right in their own communities. If you have a heart for ministry and want to team up with other young people to reach children in your area, then CYIA is for you!
