Martha was busy doing good things, but Jesus reminded her that being with Him mattered most. Summer can be full of opportunities, responsibilities, and plans. This summer, consider whether your schedule is helping you stay connected to Christ or simply keeping you occupied. Let's be intentional with our time, like Mary.

Action Step:
Choose one activity this summer to do more intentionally, inviting God into that moment.

Every day, God is moving through YFC as lost young people encounter hope, belonging, and the life-changing message of Jesus. As we approach the end of our fiscal year, would you prayerfully consider making a special gift or becoming a monthly partner? Your support helps us continue to show up for lost young people, build authentic relationships, and share the hope of Christ.

Watch Jon's message to hear how God is at work and how you can help us finish the year strong.

Together, we can reach more young people with the love of Jesus.

😎Leader Story from Camp: At the beginning of the weekend, my student was quiet and reserved, sticking to themself- outside of the group. But as the weekend unfolded, something changed. Conversations turned into friendships. Shared meals became moments of connection. Laughter replaced silence. By the end of the weekend, the same student couldn't stop talking and didn't want to leave.

When we're present with one another, amazing things can happen. This summer, we're choosing to slow down, be intentional, and create space for young people to be known, encouraged, and pointed toward Jesus in our trips, summer games, and coffee meetups.

Would you partner with us?

🙏 Pray that students would continue building meaningful relationships and growing deeper in their faith.

❤️ Give to help make life-changing moments like these possible for more young people this summer.

Together, we can help young people experience the hope, belonging, and purpose found in Christ. www.yfcchicago.org

☀️⛱️ What would it look like to slow down enough to hear God? Sometimes growth happens quietly, beneath the surface, before anyone else can see it. This is the kind of space we hope every student, team member, and partner experiences this summer. Let's make space this summer to quiet the noise- be present, prayerful, rooted, and ready. Want to join us? Leave encouragement in the comments.

🎓We are celebrating our Class of 2026 Graduates across Chicagoland and NWI!

What a gift it has been to walk alongside them through this season of life. We’ve watched many grow, lead, overcome, laugh, serve, and pursue God in powerful ways.

Join us in prayer as they step into this new chapter... that they would stay rooted in Christ, trust Him boldly, and remember that their stories matter. Wherever God leads them, they'll know they are loved and supported.

Congratulations, seniors! We are cheering you on every step of the way. 🥳

Over the past few weeks, something has been taking shape. Not just a plan, a direction. A commitment to what matters most in our ministry:

Jesus.
Young people.
Partnership.
Health.

This is how we move forward, and this is just the beginning. We're on a mission!

Healthy ministry starts with healthy people. That includes all of us.

This weekend, take a few minutes to slow down and sit in His Word and prayer:

Where are you feeling full?
Where are you feeling stretched?
Where might God be inviting you to draw closer?

Because even small pauses can bring clarity, renewal, and focus.

Let’s pursue health together!

🌱 Pursuing health means staying rooted and growing in faith so we can keep showing up for young people with consistency and care.
