My story has taken me from being a junior high kid going to his first Campus Life Club 30-some years ago. -Jared Diller, Executive Director 

We often speak of getting to know a teen’s story so that we can share our story, a story that points teens to the story of Jesus. 

My story has taken me from being a junior high kid going to his first Campus Life Club 30-some years ago, to presently working for YFC alongside a team of amazing people that love Jesus and are passionate about sharing the gospel with this generation. 

From past to present, many leaders within YFC have been active in helping me grow in and walk out my faith in Jesus. Names like Paul Miserlian, Jim King, John and Tam Diller (my parents and volunteer Campus Life directors in the 70’s), Don Leader…and the list goes on and on! 

In my present role with YFC, I see teens who long to be noticed; to have someone to be present and available to walk out life with. I see the great need for leaders to be there to point to Jesus in pivotal moments of teens’ lives! 

The past brings memories of what God has done through the faithful work of many leaders over the last 63 years. The present affirms we stay close to the mission of pursuing lost teens with authentic Christ-sharing relationships! And excitedly, the future is where we know God will meet more teens with the message of hope that can only come from the gospel. 

We would love to hear your story! Would you do us the honor of sharing how God has impacted your life through YFC? Please submit written or recorded testimonies to findlayyfc@gmail.com
