In my new role of Community Liaison for London Youth for Christ, I feel like I’ve come back ‘home’ to the work of London YFC. My journey with YFC started in the early 1970s at 95 Dundas Street. I was a “roadie” for the London YFC music teams and came to faith in Jesus after a trip to Detroit in 1974.

 

I joined the staff in 1976 as a full time Campus Life worker in three London high schools. After 11 years of operating Master Auto Care and a 30 year teaching career at Sir Wilfrid Laurier Secondary School, I have returned to the YFC staff on a part time basis. It feels like I’ve never been too far away, as I have served on the Board of Directors for 35 consecutive years.(1986-2022)

Our mission at London YFC has not changed. We’re “anchored to the rock and geared to the times”. We have discovered that in the past 2 years, youth have suffered in silence as they wrestled with online learning, lack of meaningful “in person” relationships and isolation from extended family and friends. It’s my desire to help reengage the youth, schools and churches in south-central London with our Youth Center and our mission “to see every young person living fully alive in Christ”.

Thank you for partnering with us

Jeff Ste. Marie, Community Liaison
