PREPARED FOR THE JOURNEY
The road to YFCI GA 2026 begins long before we arrive in Mombasa.
God is not only preparing a destination—He is preparing His people.

As delegates across continents make plans, apply for visas, arrange travel, and prepare their schedules, may our greatest preparation be the posture of our hearts. The One who calls us is the One who goes before us.

“The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.” — Deuteronomy 31:8 (NIV)

This month, let's pray that every obstacle is removed, every journey is protected, every heart is made ready, and every delegate arrives expectant to encounter God. May He unite us across nations, languages, and cultures as one family for His Kingdom purposes.
Join us in covering the YFCI General Assembly 2026 in prayer as we prepare for 14–21 October 2026 in Mombasa, Kenya.

🙏 Download the July Prayer Letter, pray through it with your team, and consider joining the GA Prayer Team as together we seek God's leading for every step of the journey.

Warm greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
We invite you to join us in prayer through this month’s prayer letter, themed “The Lord Will Provide.”

“So Abraham called that place The Lord Will Provide. And to this day it is said, ‘On the mountain of the Lord it will be provided.’”
— Genesis 22:14 (NIV)

This scripture reminds us that God is faithful to provide everything needed for His purposes. As preparations for GA 2026 continue, we are trusting Him for resources, wisdom, coordination, partnerships, safe travel, and unity across our global YFC family.

We wish all the YFC nations a wonderful time in prayer and fasting. (Every first Monday of the month)

Listening is more than hearing—it is positioning our hearts to recognize God’s voice and aligning our lives in obedience to His will. As you reflect on the points ahead, ask the Holy Spirit to tune your heart and bring you into deeper alignment with Him.

In moments of fear and uncertainty, where do you run?

Psalm 57:1 reminds us that true refuge is found in God alone. Like a mother covering her young, He invites us to rest under the shadow of His wings—safe, seen, and sustained.
Even in life’s darkest seasons, His mercy is near, and every storm has an end.
Take refuge. Trust His covering. He will carry you through.
We wish all the YFC nations a wonderful time in prayer and fasting. (Every first Monday of the month) Happy Easter Holiday from us to you.

Theme: Is Prayer Really Worth It?

This month’s ePRAY Global features Irene K. Aliso, Spiritual Formation Coordinator for Youth for Christ Africa and prayer lead for the upcoming General Assembly in Mombasa.

In her reflection, Irene reminds us that prayer isn’t about changing God’s mind — it’s about allowing God to change us.
Through prayer: Our hearts are refined | Our desires are realigned | Our endurance is strengthened.

Rooted in Hebrews 12:2 and Romans 8:18, this month’s devotional invites us to look beyond convenience and embrace obedience — trusting that transformation lies on the other side.

March Youth for Christ (YFC) Africa Prayer Letter highlights Philippians 2:14–16 and calls us to live as blameless and pure children of God by choosing obedience over grumbling and murmuring.In a generation that is often weary and critical, this month’s focus encourages us to guard our hearts, preserve our witness, and shine like stars through Christlike attitudes and surrendered lives.

As we pray today, may we remain steadfast in prayer, trusting that God is shaping lives, communities, and generations through our obedience. We wish all the YFC nations a wonderful time in prayer and fasting. (Every first Monday of the month)

(Isaiah 40:31) "But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint"

How does God renew our strength? Through Joy "The joy of the Lord is your strength" comes from Nehemiah 8:10, a powerful reminder that true strength isn't from circumstances but from God's presence, providing deep, unshakable joy that empowers you to overcome trials and remain steadfast, not grieving but finding courage in Him. Other ways are strength, compassion and wisdom.

We wish all the YFC nations a wonderful time in prayer and fasting today. (Every first Monday of the month)
