Youth Department
The Youth Department would seek to provide a well–balanced program for youths to win the lost to Christ and to help those who are Christians to mature in Christ and discover the personal gifts and abilities with which God has blessed them. The one word that describes and entails the concept of youth ministry is the word “discipleship”.
The department would ensure harmony, and partnership working with all other departments in the church parish.
