Our Story

GYC began in 2002, when a small group of young students were brought together by a common hungering for the Word of God, deeper relationship with Christ and an active life in His service. This initiative has grown into a huge movement with chapters around the world, such as GYC Europe.

GYC seeks to uphold the distinctive message of the Seventh-day Adventist Church; to aspire to excellence in all aspects of their lives – academic, professional, and spiritual; to embrace the call to radical discipleship, including a life of missionary service.

Whilst we are a youth-led movement, we seek to be supportive and respectful of denominational leadership, doing what we can to advance the cause of Christ here in Europe.
