Young Life begins in the USA
In a town in Texas, at the request of his pastor, a young associate pastor named Jim Raybrun began showing young people how much God cares about them by showing up in their world and sharing the message of God's love through Jesus in ways and words they could understand and relate to.
Since 2001 we have been pursuing the over 17,000 6th-12th grade students in Greater Carrollton. Less than 1000 of these kids are connected to a local church
