I’m still using the knowledge that CYIA provided me, and I have really grown in maturity, my relationship with God, my relationship with people, my teaching skills, my confidence, and my purpose. Let me just say one thing: when you’re working at something you’re passionate about and love doing, it won’t feel like work. I know that this summer changed my life. Join CYIA, and see what God has in store for you.

“This was my favorite summer!” That was the words out of our son’s mouth. As parents, we were thrilled to hear these words. We couldn’t have dreamed of a better place for our son to spend his summer! Not only did he grow in his relation with God, he also gained confidence and life long friends! Everything he experienced has truly helped shape his vision for school and future. Having this opportunity to be a local missionary was true gift from God!

Putting training to use in daycares, YMCA's, churches, and other locations with children. Must commit to three out of the five weeks.

It's true. And it happens every summer!


CYIA (Christian Youth in Action) is the CEF summer program where middle school,  high school, and college age students (ages 12-22) are trained to conduct 5-Day Clubs. After a week of intensive training, these summer missionaries conduct several 5-Day Clubs a day in Florence, Darlington, Marlboro, Chesterfield and Dillon counties during June and July. ​These teens impact the lives of hundreds of children. Meanwhile, their own spiritual lives are also dramatically changed as they discover how God has gifted them in areas of teaching and evangelism. For many, this experience of full-time missionary work serves as a catalyst for future ministry work, possibly as educators, pastors, and missionaries.

PARENT'S PERSPECTIVE
Florence First Baptist Church

Our CYIA students are volunteering their time, but you may not be able to do that. Still be part of the mission by giving financially.

Last summer went so well, and we had so much fun! Each student grew spiritually and with one another. Contact us if you would like to see our video of the summer!
