HELP US TOUCH THE LIves OF 1000 Youth by December 31, 2023
December 18 - 22 is Make Every Moment Count for You(th) Week.
We want to reach 1,000 11-19 year olds before the end of 2023, but we can’t do it alone. We need your help. More importantly, youth within your circle of influence need your help. Are you in?
December 18 - MEMC4Y Kickoff
Visit www.heartlandyfc.org/memc4y to watch the kickoff video
December 19 - GIVE LIGHT
Write a letter to an 11-19 year old to encourage them. Consider using the prompt, “I just wanted to take a moment to tell you...”
December 20 - GIVE LAVISHLY
Financially invest in youth. You can do so by giving to Heartland YFC, through your church or by giving directly to a youth you know who is in need.
December 21 - GIVE LOVE
Spend time with a young person. This can include volunteering with a youth group, taking your own teen or another teen out for ice cream, or anything else you can think of. Most importantly, make sure to tell them they are loved and cared for by both you and Jesus.
December 22 - GIVE LIFE
Share the Gospel with a youth.
Resources
Heartland YFC staff and volunteers get a unique opportunity to introduce 11-19 year olds to Jesus at pivotal moments. From starting at a new school to becoming a parent, from choosing a job or a college to moving for the first time or the 10th time, from experiencing loss or trauma to spending time in a juvenile institution —11-19 year olds face some of the most pivotal moments of their lives; moments that can shape their entire story.
Shaping Our Story
We know how a pivotal moment can shape a story, because we’ve been through them ourselves. We also know that young people experiencing pivotal moments often feel over-looked and under-served, walking through their story without someone in their corner.
Uncovering God’s Story of Hope
When we welcome God into a pivotal moment, we invite Him to uncover His story of Hope in our lives, and to give life to our story. He is the life in all of our stories
For our 2023 year end campaign we are focusing on Pivotal Moments that can rescue teens from the problems they are facing- changing their stories forever.
