Christian Youth in Action™, or CYIA, is a missions’ program specifically designed for high school and college age students. (ages 15-22). After two weeks of intensive training, these summer missionaries conduct several 5-Day Clubs a day to help students confidently share their faith with children in Chester, Lancaster, and York counties during June-July. Each year approximately 40 students across SC reach out to nearly 4,000 children throughout the state. This year due to Covid-19 the Catawba River Chapter will be making the 5-Day Clubs available to you through two platforms, virtual and prerecorded versions. Please contact our office at 803-324-9888 to find out more information and get your organization signed up.
Students serving in CYIA come from different church backgrounds throughout South Carolina. They are a beautiful blend of color, interests, personalities and talents. The CYIA summer missionaries impact thousands of children. Meanwhile, their own spiritual lives are dramatically changed as they discover how God has called them. For many, this experience of full-time missionary work serves as a catalyst for future ministry work, possibly as educators, pastors, missionaries, etc.
You will discover God’s design for you through powerful chapel speakers and encouraging times of worship. Students learn the strength of peer praying and times of personal reflection. It will be a summer unlike any other.
Some of your training will be held at your local CEF office. However, the main Training School will be held at Columbia International University in Columbia, South Carolina. CIU is one of the premier missions’ universities in the world. They believe strongly in the CYIA program, so much so that they offer tuition discounts to students who serve in CYIA and wish to further their education. There is a cost for your materials, training, meals and lodging. Your local CEF representative will help you discover ways of inviting others to invest in your missions training to help cover some of the expenses.
CYIA is a summer ministry of Child Evangelism Fellowship® (CEF). CEF is an international ministry to children which began in 1937. CEF is in almost every country around the world.
