About Us

A global campus fellowship.

YEF is a global evangelical fellowship where university students encounter Christ, grow in the Word, and learn to share the Gospel with others.

Founded in New York City in 2009, YEF began with students gathering around Scripture, prayer, and campus evangelism. As disciples were raised and new leaders were sent out, the fellowship expanded across cities and nations, united by the same Gospel and mission.

Our Mission

Mission Statement

Young people will come to you like the morning dew.

Psalm 110:3

We exist to help students know Jesus Christ deeply, build their lives on the Word of God, and grow into mature disciples whose faith shapes every part of life.

From campus evangelism and Bible study to discipleship and leadership, YEF equips students to share the Gospel, serve others, and carry Christ’s mission into the world.

The Call

In the days of your youth, remember your Creator.

Know Christ

The university years are a formative season when convictions, values, and direction for life are taking shape. YEF calls students to seek Christ and build their lives firmly upon Him.

Grow in the Word

Through Scripture, prayer, fellowship, and discipleship, students deepen their faith, develop a biblical worldview, and learn to follow Christ in every area of life.

Live on Mission

Faith is meant to be lived and shared. Students are encouraged to serve others, make disciples, and carry the Gospel to their friends, campuses, communities, and beyond.

Testimonials

From Students to Disciples.

I grew up knowing about God the way you know about a city you've never visited. Bible study was the first time someone asked what I actually believed — and waited for the answer.

I joined for the free dinner. I stayed because someone read Romans with me every week for a year and never once made me feel behind.

Before YEF my faith was something I inherited. Now it is something I carry — to my campus, to my family, to the students coming after me.
