  • The ministry in Estonia is continuing to grow with more kids coming to club. Keep praying for more open doors and more kids.

GOD IS PLANTING SEEDS OF CHANGE IN LatvIA and Estonia THROUGH YOUNG LIFE

Latvia is a beautiful country on the Baltic Sea, but it is also burdened by high unemployment and suicide rates. The hopelessness of Latvia’s youth can be seen in the prevalent alcoholism and drug use.

Young Life ministry is reaching out to these kids by providing a secure, safe environment and warm friendship. Through these relationships, the hopelessness of these youth can be turned into purpose and life with the Good News of Jesus.
