Why UCYC Missions?
It is no secret that our society is noisier, busier, and more stressed than ever. Our constant connection to screens, entertainment, and the news can drain our souls. We need a place to rest, recharge, and reconnect with God.
UCYC has existed for more than sixty-five years with a focus on getting people away from the noise and into a peaceful space where they can connect with God in a new way. UCYC missions bring together a restful place, with each other, focused on a positive mission.
By choosing to serve at UCYC you will be planting seeds to help ensure that thousands of students hear the gospel in a distraction-free environment. You are making an impact bigger than yourself & recharging your soul while you’re at it.
We cannot wait for you to join us at a UCYC Mission.
