As relaxing as it may be to relax at the pool or spend time with friends, what if you chose instead to make an eternal impact in the lives of children right where you live?
This could be made possible through Child Evangelism Fellowship's ministry, Christian Youth in Action (CYIA). This is a program designed to train high school and college age individuals in effective and engaging ways to teach children about God.
CYIA training is in two increments; The first is a pre-training for two three-hour weekends in April that will be lead by our chapter ministry coordinator. During this time the youth will be taught how to clearly present the Gospel on a child's level using the Wordless Book. The second week will be held in Camp Harmony in Hooversville, PA. This will be a week where the youth will join all the summer missionaries throughout the state of PA. They will be taught in various ways on how to counsel a child for salvation, and the many aspects of leading a dynamic 5-Day club program for kids. This training is all about teaching, repetitive demonstrations, and hands-on experience.
After two individual trainings, you will return to your local community in the Mifflin - Juniata - Perry counties and teach 5-Day Clubs at various location with your MJP team. These clubs take place out in the community with predominantly unsaved children who do not regularly attend a church. You will be able to take the light of the Gospel to them in their apartment complexes, day care centers, neighborhoods, and other community locations. Summer ministry commitment is between 4 - 6 weeks, in which you will:
- reach boys and girls with the Gospel
- see your faith and vision grow deeper
- build new and lasting friendships
- grow in communication, teamwork, leadership, endurance, responsibility, and self-confidence
- gain experience for ministry in your own local church, school or location
SEE the schedule for the upcoming year below. (This will be posted at the beginning of 2027)
If you have a heart for ministry and want to team up with other young people to reach the children in Mifflin - Juniata - Perry Counties, then YOU could be part of our CYIA missionary team.
