Our Mission and Vision
From the forests and lakes of Wisconsin and Michigan, to the small towns and farmlands of Indiana, and the cities and communities of Illinois, we come together as one. Across these states, we strive to BE Christ’s love, DO His amazing work, and GO share the Good News in our communities, across our nation, and around the world.
When we think of sharing the Good News about hope in Jesus, God's love and forgiveness, and life in God's spirit we are talking about a way of being. When we draw close to God, God draws close to us and we can be who we truly are in Christ.
Discipleship is about allowing our lives to be formed in the process of following Jesus. With our whole selves and within community, we engage in God’s mission and presence already at work, inviting others to join us on this journey of transformation.
Leadership in NYI is discovered through the journey of following Jesus and being accountable within community. Christ-following leaders are always in process, growing in grace, deepening their relationship with God, and transforming the lives of those around them.
Across the Central Field, we are raising up a generation of students and leaders who BE, DO, and GO, making an eternal difference in their world.
