• Every kid, in every country in Africa, for Eternity.
• We are committed to the message of grace, hope and salvation in Jesus Christ in all that we are and all that we do.
• 10-In-5 Initiative: We feel called to begin new, vibrant, healthy, sustainable and replicable incarnational ministry to young people in 10 African countries in five years.
• We are committed to raising up and training indigenous leadership in every African country.
• We are committed to supporting the local church to build and encourage the body of Christ in each country.
• We rely on a strong interdependent partnership between Young Life Africa staff and ministry and Young Life in the United States - a sharing of gifts and resources. We believe that God has blessed the Young Life Africa family with unique gifts (faith, love, life in the Spirit) which are desperately needed in the United States - we want our friends in the U.S. to experience these and grow together!
