Is this you?

• My parents can’t understand why I spend so much time on my phone
• Everybody lectures at me, but nobody listens to me
• Americans really don’t understand me
• My best friends are online, but I’m open to making new friends.
• I don’t have a safe place to truly be myself and talk openly about issues that matter to me

What is Jesus like?

• He’s online and available 24/7
• He knows you and every convoluted twist in your life journey
• He knows your burning questions and isn’t freaked out
• He wants to talk to you and listen to you
• He won’t bend on his rules, but wants to bring you hope not condemnation
• He has many compassionate and wise followers who want to befriend you online and face-to-face

Encounter God on your phone

You can waste your time projecting a false image of yourself to win Likes from large numbers of followers who really don’t care about you.  Or you can find an inner circle of friends who get to know the real you and embrace you as you are. ​

JESUS WAS AN IMMIGRANT

​Escaping execution by an authoritarian regime, at the age of 2 Jesus fled with Joseph and Mary to Egypt. Constantly on the move as an adult, Jesus was the ultimate sojourner. Because he was the only citizen of heaven to live on earth, nobody fully understood him. He knew what it felt like to be an outsider.

JESUS UNDERSTANDS YOU!

Today’s second-generation immigrant youth are caught between the cultural expectations of their parents and American society.  Global Youth Interchange helps them discover an identity in relationships with Jesus Christ and one another.  And it helps them cultivate stronger relationships with their families and American friends.
