2009 saw hundreds of young people have a fantastic time away on holiday! Throughout the year, YFC hosted a range of Christian residentials, all offering great activities and provision for different ages, styles and interests. It is is really exciting to see young people move on in faith, whether that be giving their lives to Jesus for the first time, or taking the next step on in their relationship with God.

For this reason, we at YFC are really looking forward to what is in store for our residentials in 2010!


Notes for parents and leaders

Youth for Christ Impact Holidays are designed specifically for the age ranges listed. Be sure to check before you book. Over 18s do fill in the Application form yourself. Holidays are designed to be:  

  • Filled with different activities to cater for all interests

  • Young people develop self-confidence as they learn new skills and try new activities

  

  • Sites are secure, safe and familiar to group leaders

  • Activities meet current legislation

  • Leaders are committed, experienced Christians

 

  • Christianity is lived out and presented in a relaxed way. Discussions invite questions rather than prescribe answers and no pressure is put on the young people.

  • Christian teaching and principles underpin each holiday and leaders seek to love, include and develop each individual participant

  • Meeting other Christians the same age stimulates friendship and encourages corporate fellowship, prayer and Bible study

 

If you know young people who would benefit from coming on a YFC Impact Holiday but may be struggling financially, please consider applying to:

The Joan Boswell Fund

Set up in memory of Joan who wanted to encourage Christian residential holidays, Youth for Christ’s own trust fund helps young people to meet the cost of their holiday if they need help financially. Apply to Gavin Calver who administers this fund at Youth for Christ.

 
You could also try applying to a separate, independent fund called:

The David Chilcott Fund

This independent fund also helps pay for young people to go on Christian holidays. A typical grant might be around £70, or half the cost. About 200 people are helped each year. To obtain an application form send a stamped addressed envelope to: The Treasurer, The David Chilcott Fund, 11 Bay View Court, Bay View Road, Northam, Bideford, Devon. EX39 1TJ.
