We introduce adolescents to Jesus Christ and help them grow in their faith.
Young Life Zimbabwe North is a community of leaders and volunteers meeting teens where they are—at schools, neighborhoods, and clubs—with hope, purpose, and belonging.
Our Mission
To introduce adolescents to Jesus Christ and help them grow in their faith through trusted relationships and consistent presence in their world.
How We Do Ministry
- Praying for young people.
- Going where kids are and building personal relationships with them.
- Earning the right to share the Good News of Jesus Christ.
- Providing fun, adventurous, life-changing and skill-building experiences.
- Inviting kids to personally respond to the Good News and walking in friendship with them regardless of their response.
- Working in community alongside like-minded adults (volunteer leaders, committee members, donors and staff).
Our Story
Young Life began in 1941 with a simple idea: meet teens where they are and show them the love of Christ. That relational approach has grown worldwide, and Zimbabwe North is part of that story.
In Zimbabwe North, our ministry has grown through local leadership, deep community roots, and a commitment to walking with young people in schools, neighborhoods, and clubs.
