CYIA

Christian Youth In Action^® (CYIA^™) is a program designed to train you and a team of other young people in effective and engaging ways to teach children about God. Starting mid-June, you will attend a week-long training school in Salem, where you will learn to present the Gospel clearly on a child’s level, counsel a child for salvation and lead a dynamic club ministry for kids, called a 5-Day Club^®.

After this training, you will return to your local community and teach clubs at various locations with a team of other young people. These clubs take place out in the community with predominantly unsaved kids who don’t regularly attend church. You will be able to take the light of the Gospel to them in their apartment complexes, day care centers, neighborhoods, schools and other community locations. In Mid-Columbia chapter, you will teach at least three 5-Day Clubs, as well as one in the Salem area.
