ABOUT THE YC

"Reaching Youth for JESUS Since 1995"

A TOTAL VOLUNTEER ORGANIZATION

FREE OF CHARGE TO ALL CHILDREN!

THE YC's STAND!

With society fast deteriorating, as foretold in the Bible as to how it will be in the Last Days of mankind, we want to go on record that the Filling Station Youth Center has always, and will always, preach the uncompromising Word of God…GOD’S WORDS, whether it is liked or un-liked! If numbers drop…numbers drop (also foretold). Sinful man does not like God’s Standard and His Holy Word, but that is Who we speak of and for! We preach Jesus Christ crucified and the Only Way to the Father!

“The LORD gave the word: great was the company of those that published it.”Psalm 68:11

“Therefore shall ye lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul, and bind them for a sign upon your hand, that they may be as frontlets between your eyes. And ye shall teach them your children, speaking of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. And thou shalt write them upon the door posts of thine house, and upon thy gates: That your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which the Lord sware unto your fathers to give them, as the days of heaven upon the earth.” Deuteronomy 11:18-21

The Butler Youth Evangelistic Association, Inc., (BYEA) sponsor of the Filling Station Youth Center, is a non-profit 501(c)3, Christian organization that was established in 1995 to provide a place of fun, fellowship, activities and moral guidance to youth. We believe that, according to the Word of God in Ephesians 6:10-18, we are in a spiritual battle for the very lives and souls of our young people. Uniting with the Holy Spirit of God, we are raising a standard against the powers of darkness in order to accomplish the following in the lives of our young people:

1) REACH THEM WITH THE GOSPEL

a. win their souls

b. minister to their needs

       1. Spiritual - Biblical/moral lessons, salvation, prayer

   2. Emotional - Biblical council, friendship, mentoring, support

       3. Physical - Food, exercise, clothing

2) PROVIDE A PLACE OF GROWTH FOR CHRISTIAN YOUNG PEOPLE

       1. Service

       2. Evangelism

       3. Various ministries a. drama b. music, etc.

We provide activities such as a BMX bike course, a climbing rock, basketball, boxball, billiards, volleyball, fooseball, air-hockey, tetherball, ping-pong, soccer, board games, contests, meals and snacks, prizes, Christian videos & music, Biblical/moral lessons, drug-alcohol-tobacco & violence free literature, and much more ALL FREE to the youth!

We are staffed by volunteers. These precious volunteers give of their time and talents to reach out to the youth in hopes of making a difference in each of their lives. There are four to six adult volunteers scheduled each time the center is open. We are a total volunteer outreach!

With all the killing and violence of, and by youth in our society today, we want to try and reach our kids before it is too late. We want to encourage them by letting then know that the Lord Jesus Christ loves them and has a special purpose for each of their lives, and by doing so, laying the foundation for our youth to become productive members of our community. It is our desire to be able to provide, through the years ahead, or until our Lord's return, a place for energy-burning recreational fun, fellowship, guidance, and love for our youth!
