What is Youth Challenge?


Pennsylvania Youth Challenge is a Christian outreach team of young people, sponsored by the Pennsylvania Conference of Seventh-day Adventists and Philadelphia area churches. Pennsylvania Youth Challenge puts primary emphasis on faith sharing activities. Youth Challenge empowers young people, ages 16 through college-aged, to share their faith and earn tuition money by sharing Christian books, called magabooks door-to-door and participating in community kindness projects.

We believe that Jesus’ command, “Go into all the world,” includes teenaged and college-age Christians, and that they must be trained and drilled in the best methods of winning souls to Christ, and sent into their communities to love people with the love of Christ and to teach the Word of God.

We see that the Spirit of God is eager to endue our young people on the Philadelphia Youth Challenge team with power and ability to witness for God. It is our aim to provide an environment where that Spirit will give us joy in prayer, study of God’s Word, and persevering, individual witness to the great love of our God.
