What is Young Life?Young Life (YL) is a non-denominational Christian organization whose primary focus is to be an outreach ministry to support students in middle school, high school, and even off at college. They are present in all 50 of the United States, as well as in more than 90 countries around the world. YL is all about connecting with students in the community and walking alongside them. Red Wing YL is working with several churches in town to help connect with students, connect students with caring adults, and connect students with Jesus Christ.
What Happens at YL?Red Wing Young Life is a gathering for students in grades 7-12 that meets on Thursdays from 4:00-6:00pm during the school year at First Covenant Church (across the street from Twin Bluff Middle School). We call "Club" and is best known to be a “party with a purpose.” It’s controlled chaos that’s almost impossible to describe, but kids know it when they see it. And before the party ends, we share a short, simple message about God’s love for them. After all, that’s what the celebration is all about.
Students will have the chance to hang out with their friends, do homework, play in our full-size gym, and gather around many of the games in our youth room (which includes carpetball, ping pong, foosball, Xbox, board games, etc)! We also have a café area where students can purchase some food and snacks. Afterward, we all gather in the gym for a unique large group game. Then we head into the youth room for announcements, music, skits, games, and more of that controlled chaos. After the short club talk, students will head back home.
