[quote=Anonymous]I didn’t do YL in high school but I have several friends who did it through high school and college. A couple of those people are now staffers. Not in the DC area, but the YL here is really chill and open minded—not especially preachy or born-again ish. It seems to be a mentor/socialization heavy organization. I’ve helped out with some of the activities, kayaking, dodgeball tournaments, etc. For those events, the format seems to be: do an activity, eat food, 20 something year old tells a story about Jesus or the Gospel in a modern telling, kids go home. I know that one friend goes to meet with some kids she mentors and goes to their sporting events, etc. From the perspective of knowing staff, I wouldn’t classify it as cultish. Staffers hang out with people of different faiths, orientations, and aren’t super wrapped up in their jobs to an obsessive degree. Hope that helps, OP[/quote]
