Praise From Past YMI Students
"These two years have changed and challenged me in ways I both could not have imagined and in ways I knew were deeply needed...through YMI I have found more support than I ever thought existed. And in that respect, YMI has been God's very visible hand and mostly audible voice in my life."
- Britt Holdren
"YMI saved my life...One of the greatest lessons I have learned is how to be open, honest, and vulnerable with those who are ready to love and care for me...They have continuously showered me with love, encouragement, laughter, but have also not been afraid to speak truth...into my life."
- Laura Gehman

Trusted By Pastors
"For many years now YMI has been our "go-to" consulting and training partner for youth ministry...in every case the persons we sent (to YMI) were better equipped both theologically and pragmatically to serve with success...each youth leader in which we have invested with YMI says the same thing: 'Best experience ever. I learned so much. I think every youth director should go through YMI"

- Rev. Dr. Bill Barnes
"Our youth minister didn't know what to do first to help the program become healthy. YMI was the answer! Through YMI, our youth director became educated, competent, and confident. He learned to see the big picture. He learned how to attend to relationships. He learned educational methodology and organizational skills...Thank you YMI!"
