We continue our close links with Cheltenham Youth For Christ as we raise funds for them this month. New offices in Hatherley Lane has also meant some staff changes and with fresh initiatives this year the work continues to grow.
"Underground” was officially launched in February and involves young people praying in triplets for three friends who they would like to see come to know Christ. The initial target is for 30 young people to be involved in prayer after the first year growing to 500 in five years. Early responses have been very encouraging.
A sports project will begin this summer which is called Kinetic and will be for students in year 5 or 6 of primary school. The group will seek to encourage participation in sport and the application of good sporting values. In the process the young people will be supported in questioning what relevance Jesus has to sport and their lives. As always our prayers for the work of Cheltenham YFC are valued and if you would like to offer help they can be contacted on 01242 524408 or by emailing office@cheltenhamyfc.co.uk
