When we follow up, students follow through

Support Today

the opportunity

Because of your belief in the next generation, thousands of students over the last five decades have made life-changing decisions for Christ at CIY events – decisions like:

Choosing Jesus for the first timeTurning back in repentanceCommitting to Kingdom WorkStepping into vocational ministry

But as you know, a decision is just the beginning. What comes next – discipleship, community, and consistency – is where long-term transformation happens. Students need support to move from a moment of calling to a lifetime of commitment. They need churches and mentors to help them follow through.

That’s where your impact continues.

The Plan

Because of generous partners like you, the Follow Through Initiative is being developed – a new discipleship platform that will walk with students after they say “yes” to Jesus.

This tool will serve as a holistic, app-based discipleship system – a place where students and the adults in their lives can access:

  • Resources: to grow in their faith
  • Relationships: to support them
  • Repetition: to help them lead and live it out

We’re starting with content focused on vocational ministry and will expand each year to support other major decision points students make.

Your support is helping us build something that churches have been waiting for—and students desperately need.

The Invitation

Pray With Us

Pray for every student who has made a decision – that their calling would be confirmed, and that God would surround them with people like you who will walk alongside them.

Fuel The Mission

Your gift today helps build and launch a platform that could support over 700,000 students in the next decade. That’s what’s at stake.

If You're a Church Leader

You have a powerful opportunity to redefine what success looks like in youth ministry. Let’s not just count attendance – let’s measure activation:

  1. Serving: How many students are actively serving in your church each week?
  2. Sending: How many “Timothys” will your church raise up and send out this year?
