The Longest Consecutive Running YL Club in the Universe!

Since 1942 (just 12 months after this whole thing got started!), Young Life Tyler has thought the world of kids. We believe that they deserve to know what life can hold for them. Young Life leaders are caring adults who come sharing that hope as well as fun and lasting friendships with kids. Young Life is also all about fun. From Club and Camp to Campaigners and other goofy stuff, teenagers in Tyler will have a blast laughing, trying new things and being with their friends.

Did you know that Tyler Young Life is the Longest Consecutive Running Young Life Club in the Universe?  We could have said State.  We could have said Country.  We could have even said GALAXY... But why stop there?  By God's Grace, Tyler Young Life Leaders have chased after our high school (and now middle school!) friends continuously for 68 years.  That is simply unbelievable!

Our HEROES ... Our YL Leaders

Young Life Leaders are committed to being involved with kids' lives -- from supporting them at their sporting events to listening to them talk about what's important to them. Our leaders help kids consider the direction of their lives, and they offer hope for their future.

These folks give their life away several times a week to impact the Kingdom by chasing after our middle school and high school friends in Tyler!  The reason these folks do this is because we believe that our adolescent friends are WORTH IT!

Here are our Heroes and the 'class' they chase after!
