Fort Dodge Youth For Christ

Campus Life is a Youth For Christ Ministry. It is a safe, positive space for students to have fun, discuss important issues, and be heard without judgment.

It encourages making good choices and leading positively in school.

We had the opportunity to have a booth at the Iowa Central Community College Welcome Back Fair! It was so fun meeting new students, and sharing a little about what we do through Campus Life.

As we head into our second year of Campus Life in Fort Dodge, we’re excited for what God has in store! We’re praying for new volunteers and an intern who want to invest in the lives of middle school students.

A few weeks ago, middle school students from Fort Dodge Campus Life gathered at camp for moments like this, listening, learning, and being challenged. 🙏

We’re grateful for what God did at camp! ❤️

Clear Lake Beach Day was a BLAST!!! Our students were super excited for it, texting the leaders at 6am and nervously waiting for the boat rides as some have never been on a boat!! They were loving the water and just simply swimming but some were kept busy with watermelon football and sandcastle building!! The day tired them out and majority of them slept the whole way home!! End the day with some good ol Dairette Ice Cream!!!

Thank you to all FOUR of the boat drivers allowing ALL our YFC students to ride on the boat/tube!!

Thank you to Clear Lake YFC (Tim Baxter) & Mason City YFC (Evan Nielsen) for organizing, and hosting us!!

They are already talking about the next “beach day”!!

What an incredible day with our Youth for Christ students at Lost Island Waterpark! ☀️💦
We're so thankful for every student who came and for everyone who helps make opportunities like this possible.

Ministry happens not only in conversations, but also in shared experiences and genuine relationships. We can't wait for the next adventure!
