Connecting with young people in their world.
“Our young people today are waiting for somebody to care about them enough to take the time and trouble to pour out compassion on them. To prove their friendship. To bridge this tragic and terrible gap that exists in our culture between teenagers and adults.”
Jim Rayburn, Jnr (1909 – 1970) founder of Young Life
