II. Goals of the Youth Camp
The Youth camp should:
1. Introduce Jesus Christ to the participants
2. Encourage the participants to invite Jesus Christ into their lives
3. Invite the participants into the support environment of CFCYFL.
III. How to Achieve These Goals
All YFL activities, most especially the Youth Camp, are defined by our YFL Culture. Our YFL culture
is our F.A.C.E. that we want people to see. Ensuring that such a culture is promoted in the Youth
Camp will help us in achieving its goals.
A. Fun
By enjoying the company of the participants in the Youth Camp; by always seeking to make them
comfortable; by always wearing a smile and being joyful in everything; by being the best example
for the participants in the Youth Camp will help encourage them to open up to God and to others
better.
B. Acceptance
By making the participants feel welcome in the Youth Camp and not allowing them to feel left out
at any moment; by treating all the participants equally, regardless of how they look or act; and by
taking time to talk and listen to every participant will give them a sense of belongingness; all these
will make them feel secured in God’s love and give them the sense that they belong.
C. Christ-Centered
By showing the participants that Jesus Christ is at the center of everything we do in YFL; and by
letting them see that it is He who inspires and motivates us will allow them to accept Jesus Christ
as well into their lives later on.
D. Excellence
By giving the participants the best Youth Camp experience possible; by ensuring that everything is
done properly and punctuality; and by going the extra mile will make the participants feel that they
are important and loved by the YFL members, and above everyone else, by Jesus Christ.
IV. Attitudes of a Team Leader
A. The Team Leader should strive to be a man of vision.
1. He sees that the Youth Camp is not an end in itself but rather the beginning of a
process of growth for the participants.
2. He knows that follow up activities must be done after the camp, such as the Covenant
Recollection for the participants and Household Leaders Training for the Youth Camp
facilitators, and begins to make arrangements for this with the couple coordinators.
Note: For new areas where there is no local YFL Chapter yet, the team leader makes
arrangements to set-up CFCYFL. The team leader therefore should always be ready with
training manuals, especially when out on mission.
3. He is always looking out for potential leaders and points them out to the couple
coordinators of the area.
B. The Team Leader should strive for clarity.
1. He makes sure that others see what he sees.
2. As the one who will be directly speaking to the participants, he clarifies and makes sure
that his assistant team leader, the couple coordinators and the service team have the
same understanding that he has about the circumstances during the Youth Camp.
3. He finds ways to make the participants relate to the sessions. This is done through
jokes, anecdotes, examples in current movies and music trends. He illustrates the
sessions in terms familiar to the participants.
C. The Team Leader should strive to have a heart for God and His people
1. He listens to God. The team leader prepares spiritually before the Youth Camp and he
constantly intercedes and prays to God throughout the Youth Camp.
2. He has a feel for the people. He mingles and relates with the service team. He mingles
and relates with the participants.
3. He loves the people he serves.
V. Roles and Responsibilities of a Team Leader
A. Every Youth Camp has a sole team leader; the team leader is always a brother, except in
special cases such as Youth Camps of exclusive all girls’ high schools, colleges and
universities.

c. Corrects the service team.

service team for more personal matters.
Corrects the participants through their facilitators.
Note: In situations that are highly personal, correction is done one to one, with the help
of the assistant team leader; brother-to-brother, sister-to-sister. The couple coordinators
should course their corrections towards the youth through the team leader and the
assistant team leader.
d. Encourages the service team.
Exhorts them.
Takes every opportunity to affirm and commend them for doing well.

inputs in planning and conducting the Youth Camp.
2. The assistant team leader always stays in front so she can remind the team leader of
the things that should be said and coordinates with him on practical and pastoral
matters.
3. The assistant team leader oversees the registration on the first day of the Youth Camp.
4. The assistant team leader assigns and reminds the whole service team to be prayer
warriors during the Youth Camp.
Note: In the same way, there are also two camp servants; one for the brothers and the other for the
sisters. Have one camp servant sit near the team leader for more effective coordination. The other
camp servant should be at the back, ready to bring input from the couple coordinators.
Other Roles and Responsibilities
A. The team leader and the assistant team leader work in consultation with each other for unity
and they provide focus on the service team.

II. Welcoming Remarks
Introduce yourself as the Youth Camp Couple Coordinator and all the CFC support team and other
couple coordinators in the camp. Again explain briefly what YFL is and what a Youth Camp is.
Considering some of the parents might not have attended the parents’ orientation at the start of the
Youth Camp.
CFC YFL stands for CFC Youth for Family and Life. It is the youth ministry of Couples for Christ
Foundation for Family and Life for ALL young people from 13-21 years old.
The Youth Camp is a three days and two nights retreat where young people can hear and experience
God through various talks, prayers and fun activities. This is the entry point for a youth to be a
member of CFC Youth for Family and life.
A. Explain what happened to their children during the youth camp.
1. They had just finished listening to 5 Sessions namely: God’s Love and His plans for us;
Who Jesus Christ is to me; Repentance, faith, forgiveness and healing; Receiving the
power of the Holy Spirit and Growing in the Holy Spirit.
2. They were taught the basics of prayer and worship.
3. They met new friends from both participants and service team.
4. Some of them have shared their talents such as singing, dancing and playing musical
instruments.
5. They had the sacrament of confession.
6. Note: A YFL Service Team member could give a 3-5min sharing about the current
Youth Camp Experience with the participants. It should highlight what the participants
have been up to inside the camp. The YFL Service Team member should also share
his or her personal youth camp experience and how God change him or her for the
better through the CFC YFL Community.
B. Explain what will happened after the youth camp
The Youth Camp is not an end but just the beginning of our personal walk with the Lord. As we
continue to help your children nurture their new found relationship with God, we would like to ask
for your support in achieving this by allowing your children to:
1. Attend Their Households.
All YFL members belong to smaller and more intimate groups that we call ‘Households’.
These Households regularly meet. At the end of this Youth Camp, your children will be
assigned to a Household.
2. Attend Their Assemblies
All YFL members attends a monthly chapter assembly that give teachings to your children
in living out their renewed conviction and love for God
3. Attend Activities
By allowing them to attend official CFC YFL Activities your children can sustain and
develop the friendships that they established during the Youth Camp. They will also be
given opportunities to develop their talents and create a desire in them to use such gifts in
serving the Lord. They will also be led back to the Church because our activities allow them
to serve in their respective parishes.
Hopefully, the positive experience of the Youth Camp will remain a special memory that your
children may look back to and draw strength from throughout their lives.
C. Important reminders
1. It is important for all the parents to understand that the renewal process of their children
doesn’t end in the youth camp but a life-long process.
2. As parents, they are still the prime movers in their children’s spiritual renewal and so we
encourage them to be a source of encouragement to their children in this process of
renewal.
3. It is important that they support their children in being an active member of CFC Youth
for Family and Life.
D. Invite the parents who are non-community members to join Couples for Christ
Foundation for Family and Life.
1. Announce the important details regarding the upcoming local Christian Life Seminar.
(CLS) Note: Make sure that the local CFC FFL will have all the contact details of all the
non-CFC FFL Members for evangelization purposes.
E. Explain the process of parent and child pray over and dialogue
1. After our forum the team leader will give the go signal for all the parents to their child.
2. The couple coordinator will be leading all the parents to pray over their child.
