Who We Are

YFC reaches young people everywhere, working together 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 prayer and the Word of God, passion for sharing the love of Christ and commitment to social involvement.

Every day at thousands of community centers, high schools, middle schools, juvenile institutions, coffee shops, and local hangouts, YFC staff and volunteers meet with young people who need Jesus. We are rural and urban and we are always about the message of Jesus. 

Rochester area YFC was incorporated in 1983 and is on a mission of communicating the life-changing message of Jesus Christ to every young person. Through high school campus meetings, music and radio outreaches, ministry networking, big events and more, the goal remains the same: To give every teenager the opportunity to become a lifelong follower of Jesus Christ and to become part of the local church.
