Young Life thrives on our monthly donors
Young life in Jackson currently knows hundreds of students by name and we are constantly praying for and seeking relationship with them.
In 2025, 43 students went to camp and heard the whole Gospel proclaimed.
6 made Jesus the leader of their lives.
30 students consistently attend Young Life bible studies.
Monthly donations as small as $20 makes a huge difference in the way we can impact kids!
