Work Force - A Program of Youth for Christ Winnipeg

Work Force - A Program of Youth for Christ Winnipeg Connecting young people in Winnipeg’s North-End with caring adult mentors for 20 years! Work Force is located in the heart of the community.

All programs run out of this building at 467 Manitoba Ave. There are a number of different components to Work Force, with different staffing and volunteer opportunities in each of them:

JOB STUDIO
The Job studio is a place for our older youth - 16 to 20 year olds - to gain interactive training in employment skills. We help these young people learn how to find a job of their own, and develop the s

kills needed to keep that job. For more information please contact Dan Benson @ 589-4024 (or send her a message on Facebook!)

SUMMER WORK FORCE
Summer Work Force provides the opportunity 12 to 16 year olds to gain work experience in their community. Three times a week, youth go to various local establishments to offer their services. The youth gain experience, build employment skills, and receive a pay check from YFC, while the local establishments gain an extra hand! INFINITY YOUTH CHURCH
Youth church’s aim is to show God to the youth in creative and interactive ways. Meeting once a week, there is time for worship, teaching, small groups, and service activities. YOUTH GROUP
During the school year, youth group meets once a week to stay connected with our summer work force youth and their friends. Activities are offered as a chance to grow in relationship and an alternative to less positive activities the youth could be engaging in. Looking for volunteers! Please contact Dixie Bredin at [email protected]

At Work Force we believe our youth have talents and abilities that can lead to meaningful lives. We teach, challenge and dare them to dream. We also teach, challenge and dare them to dream what life would be like with the living God in their lives. We do this through one-on-one relationships, God talks, discipleship and youth church.

Please share and get the word out so we can continue making a difference.

As Good Friday and Easter celebrations quickly approach, many followers of Christ that practice Lent will be seeing what sacrifice they can make to focus their hearts and minds on the significance of Christ's death and resurrection!

If you're like me, when I look online at my spending, I cringe just looking at all the money frivolously wasted on fast food, coffees, app and monthly subscriptions that really don't make this world, city or community a better place.

Jesus said in Matthew 6:21 (NIV):

"For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."

As the Lent approaches and Christians turn our eyes to the gift and sacrifice Christ made to demonstrate God's love for us, YFC Work Force is presenting the opportunity to participate in making a difference with your sacrifice this year by contributing to something that is making a difference in youths lives in Winnipeg's North End.

We are raising funds that will go directly to the youth we serve through honorariums and wages paid out to participating youth. We raise $2700.00 to pay each youth who participates working 10 hours a week for 15 weeks in the summer. The more we raise the more youth we can engage!

So please share the posts and see if we can send the spirit of this campaign around the world!

Jesus spent most of his energy demonstrating and teaching about the Kingdom and even taught us to pray, "Thy kingdom come thy will be done on Earth as it is in heaven!"

Join us on a six week journey as Shaunna Goode leads us in practical ways to see "Thy Kingdom Come" in practical ways our own lives, as Work Force aims to see it come in the lives of the youth we serve.

The full webpage will be launched Tuesday next week!

Thank you for helping us with our mission!
