Youth and Family Ministries Major (B.S.)


Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Academic Departments

The mission of the Youth and Family major is to equip men and women to be and make healthy disciples so that they may win, grow, multiply, and send youth in the context of the church or parachurch organizations.

“Crown’s approach in equipping people for ministry is right on the mark. Encouraging and providing students the opportunity to be involved in teen ministry from the day you step on campus. They continue to offer support as you enter into vocational ministry. It is a blessing to know that the staff and faculty of Crown College care enough to equip you while you are a student and encourage you in ministry after graduation.”

Ben Graham, Youth Pastor–Mequon, Wisconsin
