Wabash Valley YFC is currently active in three counties – Vigo, Clay and Sullivan.
In Vigo County, we provide what we call “Breakfast Clubs” at all Middle Schools. These clubs meet weekly and include some breakfast, a game and a devotion. These clubs meet before school, usually at 7:30am in a location designated by the school. The high school clubs meet during the school day on days and times determined by the administration at the schools. These are subject to change based on school activities.
In Clay County, we utilize both Breakfast Clubs and Campus Life clubs to minister to students. Check the schedule for up-to-date information. The Campus Life clubs meet for a longer time period and include a more in-depth discussion or study of the week’s topic.
Sullivan County is in the middle of rebuilding/reorganizing of ministry. If you have more questions, please contact Tim Ramseier to see what the current needs are.
The Five Essentials of our Ministry
Widespread Prayer
We deliberately engage lots of Christians to intercede on behalf of the ministry site.
Loving Relationships
We consistently pursue lost kids & engage them in life-long relationships with Jesus.
Faithful Bible Teaching
We accurately handle Biblical truth, regularly coaching kids to apply it in their lives.
Collaborative Community Strategy
We intentionally work together with local churches, agencies and other partners to provide sustainable youth and family ministry.
Adults Who Empower
We strategically develop leaders to reach young people from every people group.
Our Statement of Faith
- We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God.
- We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
- We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in his miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory.
- We believe that, for the salvation of lost and sinful people, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.
- We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a Godly life.
- We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they that are saved unto the resurrection of life and they that are lost unto the resurrection of the damnation.
- We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in Christ.
Our Core Values
Evangelism and Discipleship
We are committed to take the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all young people and always seek to do so with urgency, using the most culturally acceptable presentations. We are further committed to provide a ministry of discipleship for each new believer, and to work in partnership with others who desire to accomplish the same mission.
Scripture
We are committed to the Word of God as the foundation and final authority for life and ministry. We discipline ourselves to study it diligently, apply it daily, and teach its truth to young people.
Prayer and Fasting
We are committed to pray and fast for the salvation of lost young people and for the empowerment of God’s Holy Spirit in taking the Gospel of Jesus Christ to them.
Church
Believing that the Church is the expression of the body of Christ, we are committed to work in partnership with the local church in fulfilling the Great Commission.
People
We are committed to people. We believe that young people, volunteers, board members, ministry partners, staff and their families are important first as individuals, and all are vital in the fulfillment of our mission.
Mobilization
Knowing the size and urgency of our task, we are committed to mobilize all the available resources of young people, adults, prayer and finance to accomplish our mission.
Integrity
