I started volunteering with Campus Life when my youngest son entered middle school and became his small group leader throughout his middle school years. By serving on the board, I see the full reach that is Central Indiana YFC. Christ is using CIYFC to mentor, support, and encourage young people in and around Indianapolis… that is exciting!

Vice President, Hylant At the age of 16, my life’s trajectory was eternally impacted by two YFC staff who served at Carroll High School. As my kids reach the stage of life when they can have the same experience, my passion for the organization ignited and I determined to make sure both my kids and every kid have the same opportunity.

CIYFC empowers young people by providing a tremendous amount of hope and support in the following ways: praying together, building loving relationships, and embarking on local ministry programs.

For I tell you that in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father who is in heaven.” Matthew 19:14 - But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven."_89_100_90.jpg)

I started attending Campus Life in Middle School and continued all throughout High School. It had such a positive and meaningful impact in my life that I wanted all students to share the same experience. After getting Campus Life up and running in my kids' school district, I started volunteering. I am excited to continue to support such a great organization by being on the board.
