Southside Fort Wayne YoungLives
YoungLives is a life-on-life ministry that allows us to come alongside teen moms and their babies to offer love, hope, friendship and acceptance. We are intentional about modeling the love of Christ, with the hope that girls will embrace a personal spiritual faith for themselves.
