Welcome to the Entertainment Capital of the World – Las Vegas
The city of Las Vegas offers unlimited local outreach opportunities–ongoing potential to share God’s love right here in our own backyard.
Dear Youth Pastor/Leader
Human slavery is an increasingly massive issue in Las Vegas. As the entertainment industry has developed, Las Vegas has only seen expansion in the prostitution and drug industry, and ultimately a growth in addictions of many kinds.
While the darkness seems to be growing, we’ve also seen a special people rising up (1 Peter 2:9). There’s a generation of youth that understand that there’s something seriously wrong in our world. There’s a grumbling within the young church that cries out to the broken and to the darkest parts of your city. If your team has felt that passion, we’re letting the fire loose here in Las Vegas!
God loves Las Vegas! And we, at Youth with A Mission and many others in the Body of Christ in the city, are excited at what God is doing here. We want you to come and experience what God is doing in this unique city and be part of the solution.
Read on for more information on different outreaches (both local and overseas), schedules and prices for our full service missions training program; Mission Adventures. Let us do all the work so that you and your group can jump into ministry.
Las Vegas Facts:
- 39 million tourists a year or nearly 107,000 per day
- Over 15,000 homeless roaming the inner city
- 84 different languages spoken by Las Vegas residents
- 11.9% of residents under the national poverty line

So what will we be doing?
As a Mission Adventures Team you will have opportunities to minister in music, street evangelism, the sharing of testimonies and practical ministry work. You will find yourself in a variety of settings, including feeding the homeless, ministering in street evangelism, and times of intercession for the lost in our city. Each day your team will be taught about missons and evangelism then led into the city by our staff to put it into practice.
