Thank you.
We've been running Venture holidays for over 50 years! Well-known, national evangelist J.John came on a CYFA Venture as a teenager:
'I thank the Lord for CYFA's input into my life which became a stepping stone to what I now do.
'I would wholeheartedly commend CYFA houseparties as a way of introducing teenagers to Jesus Christ and giving them a grouding in being his followers today.'
Every year around 4,500 children and young people go on a Venture holiday and have the opportunity to find out more about God and his great love for them. Lack of afforable venues, the burden of legislative requirements and the pressure of generally rising prices mean that increasingly, the cost of attending a Venture is a barrier to many families.
We would love to make Ventures affordable for everyone, so even more 8-18 year olds can hear the life-changing message of the gospel in 2011 and beyond.
What do young people remember about a Venture holiday?
'The night I became a Christian. Also my amazing dorm friends, the activities we did, hunt the leader, trips out...'
'The truly amazing feeling that comes when you realise and accept that Jesus is Lord of your life, he is Saviour and your helper and when you let him in, an overwhelming feeling takes hold.'
