The mission of Young Life is to introduce adolescents to Jesus Christ and help them grow in their faith. Thomas Quinn is Lee County’s new Young Life Area Director. He, along with a small team of other Young Life staff, are spearheading God’s invitation of relationship and life to high school and college students in our area schools.
Recently, Thomas wrote, “We are so grateful for the ways God is moving through Young Life in Lee County. This summer, our ministry had the incredible opportunity to take 86 high school students from across Fort Myers, Estero, Bonita Springs, and FGCU to Young Life camp. Through this trip, 34 of those students began a new relationship with Jesus Christ! It was a powerful week of fun, connection, and transformation. Lives were truly changed for eternity. As we look ahead, we’re excited for school to start back up in August and to kick off our regular Young Life meetings again. These weekly gatherings give students fresh opportunities to hear about Jesus Christ, experience real community, and grow in their faith. Our Young Life leaders in Lee County are eager to walk alongside students, encouraging them in both life and faith as the new school year begins. Thank you, New Hope, for partnering with us in this mission. Your prayers and support help make moments like these possible for students right here in Lee County.”
Young Life’s ministry in Lee County is made possible by adults in our community. Volunteer leaders, board members, support teams, prayer partners, and donors are always needed. For more ways to get plugged in, visit lee.younglife.org or ask community outreach director Rachel Frey.
