  • The club season is in the full swing, with leaders continuing to build relationships and trust with the teens.
  • New Center Club opened in November in downtown Yerevan. The new space was an answer to the prayer! It is currently being used for club, Bible study, worhsip, and leadership meetings.
  • Winter camping season is underway at the Pionner Camp. The leadership team is praying, planning, recruiting, and preparing the camp to welcome hundreds of kids over the next few months! Please pray for this time.
  • Pray for unity, peace, and for God to be glorified through the ministry in Armenia!

Armenia is a unique country, dating back to about 4000 B.C. It was the first state in the world to adopt Christianity as its official religion.

Armenia is landlocked, and it lies in the highlands surrounding the mountains of Ararat. Mount Ararat is a symbol of Armenia. Biblically, after the flood waters subsided, Noah’s ark landed on Mount Ararat. “And the ark rested in the seventh month on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.” Genesis 8:4

Young Life Armenia brings the Gospel of Jesus Christ to kids throughout this beautiful country. Today, amid economic and political tensions, kids, more than ever before, need to know of the hope they can have in Jesus.

Current Realities
