Cleveland County-Young Life Welcome to our new page for Cleveland County Young Life! Young Life began with a few simple ideas about sharing the truth of God’s love with adolescents.

Those simple ideas have become time-tested methods for reaching out to middle school, high school, and college students in friendship and hope. Caring for Kids — Contact Work
Because kids don’t care how much you know till they know how much you care, Young Life leaders show they care by going where kids are, meeting them as they are, believing in who they can be. Within Young Life, we call the persistent going out into the world of kids “contact work.” But kids just call it friendship. A Party with a Purpose — Club
What is it about Young Life club that makes it the best night of the week for thousands of kids every week? We like to think of it as a party with a purpose. It’s controlled chaos that’s almost impossible to describe, but kids know it when they see it. And before the party ends, we share a simple message about God’s love for them. After all, that’s what the celebration is all about. The Best Week of Their Life — Camp
Kids consistently tell us that Young Life camp is the best week of their life. That’s a rousing (and unsolicited) endorsement! But how else would you describe a week where deep relationships are forged in the midst of mind-boggling fun and where you experience and listen to what we believe is the greatest love story ever told? A Time to Question, Learn and Grow — Campaigners
Campaigners is a weekly gathering for kids who wish to learn more or grow in their faith through study, service, and leadership. We invite kids to actively follow Jesus Christ — and we’re with them for the long haul to help them take those steps of faith with unconditional love. Along the way, we encourage kids to celebrate their faith through participation in a local congregation. Adults Who Care — Committee
Young Life is making a difference in the lives of kids around the world because we are supported by adults who care about kids in their community. For every talented Young Life staff person, there is a team of dedicated leaders who works directly with kids. In each community, the local “committee,” comprised of parents, Young Life alumni, and civic leaders, provides a foundation of financial, administrative and moral support for the local Young Life team.

Looking for a meaningful way to give back to your community?

Do you have a heart for teenagers and a desire to help them experience the love of Jesus?

Becoming a WyldLife leader is an incredible opportunity to invest in the lives of middle school students, build meaningful relationships, and make a lasting impact in your community.

We’re looking for people who are willing to serve, show up, build relationships, and pray. Your prayers are just as important as your presence, and we’re asking our community to pray for the students we serve, our leaders, and the work God is doing through WyldLife.

If you’re interested in getting involved or learning more about becoming a WyldLife leader, send us a DM! We’d love to connect with you.

Once a month during the school year our leaders gather to share a meal, experience fellowship, and receive encouragement and training. We do this to be reminded that we’re serving alongside one another for the same purpose - to glorify God by living out the calling to share the Gospel with middle and high school students. Generously, families in our community host us for dinner and it is such a gift. If you’ve done this THANK YOU! If you want to do this, reach out. And finally, if you feel God nudging you to consider being a leader, we’d love to treat you to coffee and talk more about it.
