The Youth Unlimited SERVE program is a mission trip experience for young people that challenges youth through service opportunities and worship, to grow in their faith and discover how they can make a difference in the world. Youth Unlimited  offers churches the opportunity to have young people share God’s love and Christian compassion by serving others. 
Together, YU and the local Host Team strive to have a long-term impact on the communities and people whom they serve by coming along side non-profit and faith-based organizations and individuals who are already serving year-round in the community. A mission experience is at its best when it balances forming relationships between those who are serving and those who are being served, recognizes that those who are being served have as much, if not more, to give in return and addresses the needs of the community.

SERVE is designed so that a youth worker can concentrate on building relationships with students and leave the details of the experience to Youth Unlimited and the local Host Team.
