Youth for Christ Drop-In & Litgroup – Brandon Gate Church Community

Litgroups

BUILDING SELF-CONFIDENCE AND SUCCESS.

LITGROUPS is an after school program that gives kids a place to continue working on literacy skills outside the classroom.

Literacy impacts self confidence, including success in and out of school, and it helps develop thinking and communication skills. And, literacy vastly impacts employability and future job opportunities. Really, is there any aspect of life that is not, directly or indirectly, impacted by literacy?

The Gate Church Community has been a great encouragement and support to this ministry: Bakers donating cookies for snack time; volunteers coming to read with kids and play games with them. Building relationships is so important and the Gate Church understands this and provides extra events and activities in the neighbourhood for kids in the area.

Youth Centre

A PLACE FULL OF HOPE AND POTENTIAL

The YFC Drop-In is a safe place for youth to belong and build positive community in an inviting atmosphere filled with pool, fooseball, food, and music.

Here young people find a safe and caring place full of the support, counseling and community we all need from people who care.

The partnership between YFC and The Gate Community is what allows the drop-in to thrive. The Gate Community connects with youth throughout Brandon, preparing and sharing meals, conversation, games, and experiences taking opportunities to develop, mentor, and build into each youth individually and through intentional group conversations that are part of every drop-in night.

						1 Gate Church Gathering Gate Church Gathering January 1, 2023 @ 11:00 am - 12:10 pm Royal Canadian Legion Branch 3, 560 13 St E, Brandon, MB R7A 7C1, Canada We'd love for you to join us! We meet every Sunday at 11am at the Legion Hall at 560 13 St E. Our church gathers for meaningful worship and a practical, relevant message based on 'learning to live the Jesus way'. We are a 'come-as-you-are' kind of group who have been described as friendly and warm. There isn't a dress code to be concerned about. In non-Covid times we have a prayer corner in case you would like someone to pray with you. Most times we have crew of great people who take all the kids age 11 and under off to the side to run some great programs with them. That happens at the mid-point of our gathering - about 11:30 am. We’re not a collection of perfect people but we’re pretty keen to be a great community where people find faith, friends and hope. Even if you are completely new to stuff like church or God, you are completely welcome here! See more details •
