I am often asked this question. People mainly want to know how it is different from the ministry of the church as a whole.
My response is that the CYFM is not different than a part of the ministry of the church, but a specific focus in it. The goal of CYFM is to minister to families with infants up to college aged young adults. It is important that we not focus just on the children, but the family as a whole, giving them tools in which they can minister to each other--parents to children, children to adults, sibling to sibling, friend to friend. Though we have a paid Pastor and Family Minister as well as two interns, it is the job of the entire people of God to encourage each other to and in the Faith of Jesus Christ. That is why we are here.
