About CTCYM

CTCYM brings more than 2,500 youth and adults together to put Christian faith into action by repairing and rebuilding homes weathered by age, poverty or natural disaster. Through these efforts, we help repair and rebuild the lives of the people we touch. CTCYM is brought together by a volunteer task force of youth and adults from around the Central Texas Conference. This group identifies a geographic area of need, a focus of study and the steps to achieve both. Then, for two separate weeks, youth groups from across the Conference blend together to become CTCYM Living Centers.
	Each Center is led by a well-trained, all-volunteer staff dedicated to providing participants with a spirit-filled week of service. Churches and communities around those Living Centers rally to support the youth and adults of CTCYM. Through these local contacts, our teams receive shelter, meet people in need and find other willing to support our efforts. The work we do each day is fed by daily devotions and worship that keep our eyes and efforts pointed toward God.
