Our YFC Identity is our oneness and commonness as brothers and sisters in YFC. Yet each of us has our own uniqueness which also emanates from God as individuals and as one body anchored on the image and likeness of God. Here in YFC, our ultimate goal is to bring the youth to Christ. We believe that our true and ultimate destiny is that we are sons and daughters of God. Our identity is the result of our innate and core values that we in YFC want to live by. Being a YFC is not just our spiritual identity, rather, the 7 IDโs are the fullness of who we are and what we can become as a true youth FOR CHRIST.
