Kurt and Emily Rietema lead Youthfront initiatives where students engage in critical listening to the pain of the world and thoughtfully enact the story of God among broken people and places. Among them are the Youthfront School of Formation and Youthfront Missional Journeys which take place in a diverse, under-resourced neighborhood of Kansas City, Kansas called Argentine where Kurt, his wife Emily, and sons, Luke and Perkins live. There, they also lead Christian community development efforts for the Christian Reformed Church of North America. Kurt also leads a binational team of Youthfront staff who engage in community transformation through youth in the village of Croc, Mexico.
