Originally from South Africa, Ryan and his family moved to France in order to share the gospel with a country that is almost completely unreached.
One step at a time, God gave Ryan opportunities to build key relationships in France. One of those opportunities was to coach a boys rugby team where he can share the gospel with them, pray at practice & before games, and build relationships with parents. Starting with just 5 boys, his team has grown to 50! This has become an incredible opportunity to share the gospel in France!

How Youth For Christ makes BIG impact...
Campus Life ministry combines healthy relationships with creative programs to help young people make good choices, establish a solid foundation for life, and positively impact their schools. Campus Life consists of a club meeting at a High School and in the Middle Schools. Each school has its own team of YFC staff and volunteers under the leadership of a Site Leader.
Campus Life Athletics operates mainly through chapels in which YFC staff or volunteers lead high school sports teams in devotional chapels either prior to competitions, or on a scheduled weekly basis.
