YFC works with different churches, schools and in the community offering programmes and activities to introduce and support young people’s growth in the Christian faith. Wandsworth YFC is based at East Hill Baptist Church and will aim to work with and support local churches in all aspects of youth ministry. We are currently outreaching into the community. Whilst we aim to support young people who have a faith in Christ, we will support the needs of all young people regardless of their faith. The main aim of YFC is to: Bring the good news relevantly to every young person in Wandsworth. Support all aspects of a young person’s spiritual development including support for social, emotional and physical needs, with particularly the advancement of education and relieving of poverty. To empower and support young people to outreach to their peers e.g. through bible study, building relationships, offering youth led events and by young people inviting their friends to see and explore Christian life. A place for them to have fun!
