What’s PEFY?

PEFY – Pentecostal European Forum for Youth Ministries – is a channel to support, promote and link the Pentecostal European youth ministries and organisations.  PEFY aims to connect, to impact, and to increase the visibility of Pentecostal European youth through networks and youth exchange programs according to the example given by Jesus.
PEFY also organizes a yearly conference which brings together youth leaders from various European countries and youth organisations.
PEFY is operatively lead by its board, which consists of director, vice director, secretary and treasurer.

History

It was on the 8th of June in 2003 that a  couple of national leaders involved in ministry with young people from different European countries met during the Pentecostal European Conference in the hall called “Europe” in Berlin.
At that time, the goal was to link, build relationships, share experiences in youth ministry, pray together in annual meetings  and prepare youth events at European Conferences.

In 2006 the small network decided to develop and become more official in regards to the PEF (Pentecostal European Fellowship) a network representing more than 3.500.000 members from different Pentecostal churches and organizations across Europe.

The year 2008 was the turning point and an official board was established. It’s goal is to develop PEFY into an recognized European network of more than 250,000 youth, ready to input the local church based on youth exchange, impact teams (evangelism), training and conferences.
