Heartland Youth For Christ aims to reach students across Eastern Iowa by working with local churches and other like-minded partners. We strive to raise up lifelong followers of Jesus Christ. We believe those followers model Christ’s love through a Godly lifestyle, devotion to God's Word and prayer, a passion for sharing the love of Christ, and a commitment to social involvement.
Youth For Christ is an international organization focused on sharing the Gospel with 11-19 year olds. Heartland Youth For Christ is one of over 120 chapters nationwide. We come alongside young people who often feel overlooked and work to build relationships at pivotal moments in their lives. We believe that the Gospel comes to life in the overlap of God’s story, our story, and a young person’s story. The vision of Youth For Christ is to see every youth have the opportunity to make an informed decision to become a follower of Jesus Christ and become part of a local church.
