Christian Youth In Action® (CYIA?) is a CEF program designed to train high school and college students to reach the boys and girls of our community with the Good News of Jesus Christ. In a one to two week training school, these young people will learn effective and engaging ways to teach children about God--learning how to present the Gospel clearly on a child?s level, to counsel a child for salvation, and to lead a dynamic club ministry for kids.
After CYIA? training, these young people team up with CEF-RI staff and return to their local communities to teach 5-Day Clubs. These clubs take place in the summer in apartment complexes, daycare centers, neighborhoods, schools, and other community locations. Effectively equipped with CYIA? training, these young people are able to take the light of the Gospel to predominantly unsaved and unchurched children.
Are you a young person looking to serve others? Contact us and let's begin planning for next summer!
