is a national ministry who seeks out and ministers to young people. They have local groups who get permission to go
in and hang around high schools, and then they set up an off campus club that meets once a week for that school. On
Monday nights there is a Young Life club that meets in the One- Way House from 7:00pm to 8:30pm. The Young life
Club is primarily made up of students from Southside High School. Joey Allen, who is on staff at Young Life of
Greenville, leads the Young Life club. His "leadership team", consists of 6 students from Furman
