For 15 years, Young Life has provided fellowship and support for area high school students. The organization helps youngsters incorporate Christian principles into everyday living.
It is a wonderful organization that has mentored hundreds as they made their way through often trying adolescent years. Members meet weekly for fun and reflection.
Last week, about 300 former members and volunteers gathered for a Young Life reunion. Attendees shared how this nondenominational group has had such an impact on their lives.
The volunteers and workers involved in Young Life deserve praise as well -- for so positively affecting the lives of these impressional young people. David Goss is area director for Young Life. For more information about the organization or to make a donation, individuals can call 335-8300.
It is a worthy organization that well deserves the community's financial and spiritual support so that is can continue its work for many years to come.
