Mountain Lake & St. James Area Youth For Christ

The Youth for Christ Studio Ministries have one primary goal: To reach every youth with the gospel of Jesus Christ. The ministries offer many things that attract, entertain and serve the needs of area youth. Nothing can replace the knowledge and the transformative experience of salvation. All activities are either leading up to that point or building upon that foundation.

Area Director

Art Ellingson - art@scmyfc.org

Art, along with his wife Donna founded The Studio ministry back in 1998. The son of a Lutheran pastor and evangelist, Art has always viewed the Great Commission as a part of every believer's daily life. Art is a credentialed minister and also a worship leader. It is his heart's cry that both the believer and the unbeliever would turn to their Father in heaven and call on the Name of the Lord.
