Illiana Youth Federation (IYF)
Welcome to Illiana Youth Federation. The goal of every federation is realizing that we are living in earth’s closing days, and comprehending the need, which is greater than ever before, for united and organized Christian activity of Seventh-day Adventist young people; and recognizing how all-inclusive is our responsibility, as brought to view in the Spirit of Prophecy statement, “With such an army of workers as our youth, rightly trained, might furnish, how soon the message of a crucified, risen, and soon coming Savior might be carried to the world” (Education, 271), we do here unite ourselves into an organization.
The purpose of this organization shall be to promote and to sustain the high spiritual standards of its members, to enlarge the scope of their soul-winning activities beyond those which are being fostered by the individual federated societies, to furnish additional impetus to Adventist Youth Society membership, to provide added opportunities for broader social fellowship, to promote united support for a greater interest in Christian education by cooperatively establishing scholarships and fostering other appropriate education stimuli, and to lend coordinated assistance for the full support of all phases of Adventist Youth involvement that will assist in producing our objective and product - Christian men and women.
The Illiana Youth Federation covers the regional SDA Churches in the Central and Southern Indiana and Illinois. If you would like to join the federation below are the operational guidelines and how we elect new leaders.
