Meghan Young ENGL 1101 Mr.

Borrero 11/6/12 1st Draft Purpose Statement The purpose of this essay is to examine how the leaders of Young Life at UNC Charlotte and the Cabarrus County high schools engage with literacy in order to teach the word of God to young adults and teenagers. In order to achieve this I will be observing the Young Life campaign group at UNC Charlotte; as well as traveling to different Club meetings that happen all around Cabarrus County. Each high school has different leaders so it is important for me to engage and observe more than one. By the end of my ethnography research I not only plan to learn how literacy influences Young Life leaders, but I also hope to learn for myself what it will take to one day become a Young Life leader in my community.
