CFC-FFL Youth USA

WHO ARE WE?

CFC-Youth for Christ (YFC) is a youth organization under the Couples For Christ Family Ministries. CFC-YFC aims to provide a Christian support environment for young teenagers between 12 to 21 years of age. The program is oriented towards meeting the needs of our young people to belong, to be motivated, to be useful, to be good examples, to be Christian witnesses.

It has put a premium on four characteristics: it is Fun; it builds Friendships; it enhances the Faith; it allows the young Free, but responsible expression.

Although YFC professes to be ecumenical, it is still considered as a (Catholic) Charismatic group. CFC-YFC is now established all over the Philippines as well as in cities and states of other countries around the world. It is in the community parishes, as well as in various high schools and universities.

Annually, for the last ten years, CFC Youth for Christ gathers over 10,000 of its leaders all over the country and abroad in an International Leaders Conference during summer. This is a focal event in the life of YFC, a time to celebrate God's goodness in the coming together of young brothers and sisters who love the Lord. The three-day weekend is highlighted by talks, creative and sports competitions, vibrant worship, wholesome entertainment, a Praise Parade, Praise Cruise and Praisefest.

YFC's future is directed towards giving the youth a worthwhile cause to support as we seek to address, in our small way, the plight of the poor and the less privileged and the social and environmental issues that trample on the youth's human dignity: abortion, drugs, fraternity violence, sexual immorality, corruption and even the rape of our natural resources.

YFC Around the World

From its small beginnings, YFC has now grown extensively and can now be found in over a hundred countries. In the United States, YFC, is known as CFC Youth USA. It is currently present in all 50 states after the accomplishment of the mission: 4G: Go For Gold. CFC Youth USA continues to evangelize and expand within the USA. CFC Youth also holds conferences within the US in different states divided into 6 regions (Northeast, North Central, Northwest, Southwest, South Central, Southeast).
